This study sought to examine the intermediary roles of different topics of conflict and negative emotions following conflicts in the associations between attachment insecurities and relationship satisfaction in a sample of 253 mixed-gender couples from the community. Results from path analyses based on the Actor-Partner Interdependence Model showed that attachment anxiety and attachment avoidance were associated with the perception, in both partners, of experiencing more conflicts in the relationship. In turn, the more participants perceived conflicts related to major issues and daily annoyances, the more they reported negative emotions following conflicts and lower relationship satisfaction. Participants' report of conflicts related to major issues was also related to their partner's lower relationship satisfaction. Findings highlight the significance of accounting for the topics on which couples argue and of using an attachment-based framework to help couples deal with the negative emotions that they experience following conflicts.
本研究旨在考察在一个来自社区的253对异性恋伴侣样本中,不安全依恋与关系满意度之间的关联中,冲突的不同主题以及冲突后负面情绪的中介作用。基于行为者-伴侣相互依赖模型的路径分析结果表明,依恋焦虑和依恋回避与双方对关系中经历更多冲突的感知有关。反过来,参与者越是察觉到与重大问题和日常烦恼相关的冲突,他们在冲突后报告的负面情绪就越多,关系满意度也就越低。参与者对与重大问题相关冲突的报告也与伴侣较低的关系满意度有关。研究结果凸显了考虑夫妻争吵主题以及使用基于依恋的框架来帮助夫妻处理冲突后所经历的负面情绪的重要性。
