Abstract

We introduce a model of relationship commitment regulation, which describes how romantic partners might use empirically‐validated antecedents of commitment level strategically to influence a partner's commitment toward their relationship based on certain commitment goals they have for the relationship. People are generally aware of and relatively accurate with respect to knowing their partner's level of commitment and also have preferences regarding their desired level. We summarize key antecedents of commitment level (i.e., satisfaction level, alternative quality, investment size, future plans, and subjective norms) and then describe how each can be manipulated via relationship maintenance activities to move a partner's commitment level up or down, or maintained at a desired current level. Collectively, the model provides a strategic roadmap for actions one can take to foster desired commitment in one's partner and provides insight into the dyadic processes and outcomes of relationship maintenance.
关系承诺调节:影响伴侣的承诺以实现自己的承诺目标
我们介绍了一种关系承诺调节模型,该模型描述了恋爱伙伴如何根据自己对这段关系的某些承诺目标,战略性地使用经验验证的承诺水平前因,来影响伴侣对这段关系的承诺。人们一般都知道自己伴侣的承诺水平,而且对其承诺水平的了解也相对准确,同时也会对自己期望的承诺水平有所偏好。我们总结了承诺水平的主要前因(即满意度、替代质量、投资规模、未来计划和主观规范),然后描述了如何通过关系维护活动来操纵每一种前因,从而提高或降低伴侣的承诺水平,或将其维持在当前的理想水平。总之,该模型为人们提供了一个战略路线图,使人们可以采取相应的行动来促进伴侣做出理想的承诺,并为关系维护的双向过程和结果提供了洞察力。
