We examined whether the relations of consistency between ideal standards and perceptions of a current romantic partner with partner acceptance and relationship satisfaction level off, or decelerate, above a threshold. We tested our hypothesis using a 3-year longitudinal data set collected from heterosexual newlywed couples. We used two indicators of consistency: pattern correspondence (within-person correlation between ideal standards and perceived partner ratings) and mean-level match (difference between ideal standards score and perceived partner score). Our results revealed that pattern correspondence had no relation with partner acceptance, but a positive linear/exponential association with relationship satisfaction. Mean-level match had a significant positive association with actor's acceptance and relationship satisfaction up to the point where perceived partner score equaled ideal standards score. Partner effects did not show a consistent pattern. The results suggest that the consistency between ideal standards and perceived partner attributes has a non-linear association with acceptance and relationship satisfaction, although the results were more conclusive for mean-level match.
我们研究了理想标准与当前浪漫伴侣认知之间的一致性关系，以及伴侣接纳度和关系满意度是否会在某个阈值以上趋于平稳或减缓。我们使用从异性新婚夫妇收集的三年纵向数据集来检验我们的假设。我们使用了两个一致性指标：模式对应（理想标准与感知到的伴侣评分之间的个体内相关性）和平均水平匹配（理想标准得分与感知到的伴侣得分之间的差异）。我们的结果表明，模式对应与伴侣接纳度无关，但与关系满意度呈正线性/指数关联。平均水平匹配与行为者的接纳度和关系满意度呈显著正相关，直到感知到的伴侣得分等于理想标准得分。伴侣效应没有呈现出一致的模式。结果表明，理想标准与感知到的伴侣属性之间的一致性与接纳度和关系满意度呈非线性关联，尽管平均水平匹配的结果更具决定性。
