DELATORRE, Marina Zanella e WAGNER, Adriana. How Do Couples Disagree? An Analysis of Conflict Resolution Profiles and the Quality of Romantic Relationships. Rev. colomb. psicol. [online]. 2019, vol.28, n.2, pp.91-108. ISSN 0121-5469. https://doi.org/10.15446/rcp.v28n2.72265.
This study aimed to identify conflict resolution profiles and assess relationship quality levels associated with each profile. The participants were 750 heterosexual couples living in southern Brazil. They filled out measures about conflict resolution strategies, relationship quality, and sociodemographic data. A latent profile analysis was conducted in order to classify participants regarding conflict resolution. Variance and association analyses were also conducted in order to examine relationships between the resolution profiles and other study variables. Four profiles were identified: Low Conflict/ Withdraw, Validator, Hostile, and Volatile. The Validator profile showed higher relationship quality, followed by Low Conflict/Withdraw and Volatile profiles, which did not differ from each other, and the Hostile, which showed low levels of relationship quality. We conclude that even though validation and negotiation are desirable, emotionally intense strategies may also be beneficial for couples in some contexts.
