Using typologies outlined by Gottman and Fitzpatrick as well as institutional and companionate models of marriage, the authors conducted a latent class analysis of marital conflict trajectories using 20 years of data from the Marital Instability Over the Life Course study. Respondents were in one of three groups: high, medium (around the mean), or low conflict. Several factors predicted conflict trajectory group membership; respondents who believed in lifelong marriage and shared decisions equally with their spouse were more likely to report low and less likely to report high conflict. The conflict trajectories were intersected with marital happiness trajectories to examine predictors of high and low quality marriages. A stronger belief in lifelong marriage, shared decision making, and husbands sharing a greater proportion of housework were associated with an increased likelihood of membership in a high happiness, low conflict marriage, and a decreased likelihood of a low marital happiness group.
作者运用戈特曼和菲茨帕特里克所概述的类型学以及婚姻的制度和伴侣模型，利用“一生婚姻不稳定”研究中20年的数据，对婚姻冲突轨迹进行了潜在类别分析。受访者分为三组之一：高冲突组、中等冲突组（接近均值）或低冲突组。有几个因素可预测冲突轨迹组成员身份；相信婚姻是终身的且与配偶平等分担决策的受访者更有可能报告低冲突，而不太可能报告高冲突。将冲突轨迹与婚姻幸福轨迹交叉分析，以检验高质量和低质量婚姻的预测因素。对终身婚姻的更强信念、共同决策以及丈夫承担更大比例的家务，与高幸福、低冲突婚姻组成员身份的可能性增加以及低婚姻幸福组的可能性降低相关。
