Abstract

The role of intrapersonal emotion regulation in couple satisfaction is well known, while the interpersonal emotion regulation’s role has only scarcely been tackled. The few existing studies supported the role of interpersonal emotion regulation in couple, but no study has specifically assessed its effect on couple satisfaction. Likewise, it was found that cognitive empathy acts as a buffer between intrapersonal emotion regulation difficulties and hostility and positively correlates with couple satisfaction. However, no study investigated cognitive empathy as a mediator between intrapersonal emotion regulation and couple satisfaction. Moreover, no study assessed the mediator role of interpersonal emotion regulation between intrapersonal emotion regulation and couple satisfaction. Based on what was known, we took a step further, and, in line with our hypotheses, it was found that (1) interpersonal emotion regulation partially mediates the effect of intrapersonal emotion regulation difficulties on couple satisfaction. (2) Cognitive empathy partially mediates the effect of intrapersonal emotion regulation on couple satisfaction. Moreover, (3) interpersonal emotion regulation and cognitive empathy sequentially mediate the effect of intrapersonal emotion regulation difficulties on couple satisfaction. Furthermore, the implications and limits of the present study are discussed and some directions for future studies are suggested.

“人际情绪调节和认知移情是人际情绪调节困难和夫妻满意度之间的中介”

人际情绪调节在夫妻满意度中的作用是众所周知的，而人际情绪调节的作用却很少得到解决。现有的少数研究支持人际情绪调节在夫妻关系中的作用，但没有研究专门评估其对夫妻满意度的影响。同样，研究发现，认知移情在个人情绪调节困难和敌意之间起着缓冲作用，并与夫妻满意度呈正相关。然而，没有研究将认知移情作为个人情绪调节和夫妻满意度之间的中介。此外，没有研究评估人际情绪调节在人际情绪调节和夫妻满意度之间的中介作用。在已知的基础上，我们更进一步，根据我们的假设，发现（1）人际情绪调节在一定程度上介导了人际情绪调节困难对夫妻满意度的影响。（2）认知移情在一定程度上介导了人际情绪调节对夫妻满意度的影响。此外，（3）人际情绪调节和认知移情依次介导了人际情绪调节困难对夫妻满意度的影响。此外，还讨论了本研究的意义和局限性，并提出了未来研究的一些方向。
