One of the most damaging aspects, both for people's well-being and for close relationships, is conflict. Beyond different stressors, the emotions evoked, their regulation and an appropriate conflict resolution strategy will reduce negative consequences. Emotional Intelligence facilitates social relationships, but little applied research has been done on the relationship with couple conflict and emotional flooding, particularly from the perspective of women. Therefore, the present study analyzes the role of Perceived Emotional Intelligence (PEI) and the mediating effect of Positive Conflict Resolution strategies (PCR) in couples' conflicts from women's perspective, examining its effect on Emotional Flooding (EF) and Satisfaction.
Through a cross-sectional design, the relationships between variables were analyzed using group comparisons and means of a structural equation model (SEM) in a sample of 692 women.
Significant differences were found between the groups by age, length of relationship, and motherhood. The SEM revealed a good fit. PEI predicted 71.8% of the variance in EF and 35% in Satisfaction through PCR and Conflict.
冲突对人们的幸福和亲密关系而言，是最具破坏性的因素之一。除了不同的压力源外，所引发的情绪、情绪调节以及恰当的冲突解决策略会减少负面后果。情商有助于社会关系，但关于情商与夫妻冲突及情绪淹没之间的关系，尤其是从女性视角进行的应用研究却很少。因此，本研究从女性视角分析了感知情商（PEI）的作用以及积极冲突解决策略（PCR）在夫妻冲突中的中介作用，考察其对情绪淹没（EF）和满意度的影响。
通过横断面设计，在692名女性样本中，采用组间比较和结构方程模型（SEM）均值分析变量之间的关系。
在年龄、恋爱时长和是否育有子女方面，各分组之间存在显著差异。结构方程模型显示拟合良好。感知情商通过积极冲突解决策略和冲突分别预测了71.8%的情绪淹没方差变异和35%的满意度方差变异。
