How has the COVID-19 pandemic affected intimate relationships? The existing literature is mixed on the effect of major external stressors on couple relationships, and little is known about the early experience of crises. The current study used 654 individuals involved in a relationship who provided data immediately before the onset of the pandemic (December, 2019) and twice during the early stages of the pandemic (March and April, 2020). Results indicate that relationship satisfaction and causal attributions did not change over time, but responsibility attributions decreased on average. Changes in relationship outcomes were not moderated by demographic characteristics or negative repercussions of the pandemic. There were small moderation effects of relationship coping and conflict during the pandemic, revealing that satisfaction increased and maladaptive attributions decreased in couples with more positive functioning, and satisfaction decreased and maladaptive attributions increased in couples with lower functioning.
标题：COVID-19 大流行如何影响亲密关系？
摘要：关于重大外部压力源对夫妻关系的影响，现有文献存在分歧，对于危机的早期经验知之甚少。本研究使用了 654 名处于恋爱关系中的个体，他们在大流行（2019 年 12 月）开始之前以及大流行早期（2020 年 3 月和 4 月）两次提供了数据。结果表明，关系满意度和因果归因并没有随时间变化，但是平均来说，责任归因减少了。关系结果的变化不受人口特征或大流行的负面后果的调节。在大流行期间，关系应对和冲突的变化有较小的调节作用，这表明在功能更积极的夫妻中，满意度增加，适应不良归因减少，而在功能较低的夫妻中，满意度降低，适应不良归因增加。
