RIPOLL-NUNEZ, Karen Judith y CIFUENTES ACOSTA, Juan Esteban. Commitment, Self-regulation, and Intimacy in Cohabiting Couples: An Exploratory Study in Bogotá, Colombia. Rev. colomb. psicol. [online]. 2019, vol.28, n.2, pp.125-139. ISSN 0121-5469. https://doi.org/10.15446/rcp.v28n2.74632.
This exploratory study examined the effects of reasons to cohabitate, residence prior to cohabitation, and relationship length on relational self-regulation, commitment, and intimacy in cohabitating unions in Bogotá, Colombia. A self-selected sample of 60 individuals (26 men and 34 women) answered online self-report questionnaires. MANOVA results showed effects of three significant interactions (Sex*Reasons; Sex*Residence; Residence*Reasons) on self-regulation. Relationship length had a significant effect on commitment, of the restrictions type. The article discusses the implications of these results for both research on cohabitation and clinical interventions for cohabiting couples.
