Abstract

Abstract This study investigated the role of perception of the partner's investment (PPI) as a mediator of the relation between attachment and relationship satisfaction. The participants in the study were 1088 Brazilians who were involved in a committed monogamous romantic relationship. Relations between study variables were tested using structural equations. The results showed that PPI fully mediated the relation between attachment-related anxiety and avoidance and relationship satisfaction. Attachment factors that were mediated by PPI explained 80.7% of the variance of relationship satisfaction. The results revealed that higher levels of attachment-related avoidance and anxiety were associated with a lower PPI and consequently lower relationship satisfaction. Therapeutic interventions for couples may reduce perceptual bias, mainly when attachment levels of the dyad are known.

依恋与关系满意度:伙伴投资知觉的中介作用

摘要本研究调查了伴侣投资感知（PPI）在依恋和关系满意度之间的中介作用。这项研究的参与者是1088名巴西人，他们正处于一夫一妻制的浪漫关系中。使用结构方程测试研究变量之间的关系。结果表明，PPI完全介导了依恋相关焦虑和回避与关系满意度之间的关系。PPI介导的依恋因素解释了80.7%的关系满意度方差。结果显示，依恋相关的回避和焦虑水平越高，PPI越低，关系满意度越低。对夫妇的治疗干预可以减少感知偏差，主要是当二人组的依恋水平已知时。
