Descrizione

This study aims to explore the relationship between relational reflexivity and the well-being of young couples with children. The research involved 154 individuals belonging to 77 young couples with children, and we used a dyadic approach (Actor-Partner Interdependence Model) to explore the association between the two dimensions of relational reflexivity (self-detachment and relational agency) and the well-being of parents. To study relational reflexivity, we collected data on self-detachment and we validated a measure to approach relational commitment and functioning within the couple (family relational agency). Then, we explored differences in couple’s well-being (relationship satisfaction and generativity). Results showed that the two dimensions of reflexivity are differently associated with the well-being of the couple. Important differences emerged between on actor and partner effects, suggesting that couple generativity and quality of marriage outcomes are differently related to relational reflexivity, which are linked to gender differences.
