Abstract

Abstract Disclosing personal feelings could reduce stress during a difficult time, such as the COVID‐19 pandemic. The current study examined the linear and curvilinear relationships between willingness to self‐disclose to a romantic partner and COVID stress. Participants completed questionnaires online regarding willingness to self‐disclose, COVID stress, relationship factors, and self‐esteem. Results showed a marginally significant inverted U‐shaped curvilinear relationship between willingness to self‐disclose and COVID stress, suggesting the trend that individuals who were willing to self‐disclose at a low or high level had lower COVID stress compared to individuals who were willing to self‐disclose at a medium level. This relationship was mediated by commitment and self‐esteem. Future research could examine the impact of self‐disclosure on COVID stress using an experimental or longitudinal design.
在恋爱关系中,自我披露的意愿只能略微预测COVID压力,但自尊和关系承诺有间接影响
在困难时期,如COVID - 19大流行期间,披露个人感受可以减轻压力。目前的研究调查了向恋人自我披露的意愿与COVID压力之间的线性和曲线关系。参与者完成了关于自我披露意愿、COVID压力、关系因素和自尊的在线问卷。结果显示,自我披露意愿与COVID压力之间存在显著的倒U形曲线关系,表明愿意在低水平或高水平上自我披露的个体与愿意在中等水平上自我披露的个体相比,具有更低的COVID压力的趋势。这种关系被承诺和自尊所中介。未来的研究可以通过实验或纵向设计来研究自我披露对COVID压力的影响。
