Although extant research demonstrates that body valuation by strangers has negative implications for women, Studies 1 and 2 demonstrate that body valuation by a committed male partner is positively associated with women's relationship satisfaction when that partner also values them for their non-physical qualities, but negatively associated with women's relationship satisfaction when that partner is not committed or does not value them for their non-physical qualities. Study 3 demonstrates that body valuation by a committed female partner is negatively associated with men's relationship satisfaction when that partner does not also value them for their non-physical qualities but unassociated with men's satisfaction otherwise. These findings join others demonstrating that fully understanding the implications of interpersonal processes requires considering the interpersonal context. (120 words).
尽管现有研究表明陌生人对身体的评价对女性有负面影响,但研究1和2表明,当忠诚的男性伴侣也因女性的非身体特质而重视她们时,伴侣对身体的评价与女性的关系满意度呈正相关;而当该伴侣不忠诚或不因女性的非身体特质而重视她们时,则与女性的关系满意度呈负相关。研究3表明,当忠诚的女性伴侣不因男性的非身体特质而重视他们时,伴侣对身体的评价与男性的关系满意度呈负相关,否则与男性的满意度无关。这些发现与其他研究共同表明,要全面理解人际过程的影响,需要考虑人际背景。
