This mixed-method study aimed to describe perceived changes in SGM-AFAB relationship functioning during the pandemic, identify correlates of these changes, and use qualitative data to contextualize the findings. From June 2020-July 2021, 227 SGM-AFAB in current romantic relationships completed measures of perceived changes in relationship functioning during the pandemic, negative life impacts of COVID, individual and relationship demographics, and relationship processes (relationship quality, destructive conflict, and partner support). Participants also provided open-ended responses regarding their positive relationship experiences during the pandemic. Findings indicated that most participants perceived improvements in relationship satisfaction, confidence, communication, and dyadic coping; very few perceived negative changes. Perceived changes in relationship functioning were not associated with negative COVID impacts, duration of the pandemic, or with individual or relationship demographic factors. However, higher quality relationship processes were associated with more positive perceived changes in relationship functioning. Qualitative data indicated that participants valued the companionship, support, and stability of their relationships during the pandemic, and many felt that social distancing had provided time for them to engage in joint activities, communication, physical intimacy, and relationship improvement efforts.</p>","PeriodicalId":45636,"journal":{"name":"Couple and Family Psychology-Research and Practice","volume":"9 1","pages":"56-69"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11932491/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85170979","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Positive psychology interventions have been shown to increase positive emotion toward others and the self;enhancing feelings of self-worth might, in turn, increase adherence to health behaviors. This may be particularly important for parents of young children who are reported as having significant levels of stress and anxiety during the pandemic. Herein, we investigated the long-term effects of a personal savoring control versus a relational savoring intervention on mothers' adherence to health recommendations during the COVID-19 pandemic. Mothers (N = 61) who participated in the intervention and had agreed to continue to be contacted for further participation reported their adherence to COVID-19-related health recommendations through an online survey after the onset of the pandemic. We also assessed basic demographics, perceived threat of the pandemic, and general anxiety. As expected, independent of a host of demographic variables, perceived threat, and anxiety, mothers who had participated in the relational savoring intervention also demonstrated higher levels of adherence to COVID-19-related health recommendations. Even years after the initial intervention, relational savoring practices seem to enhance the use of appropriate health behaviors during the pandemic. There are various explanations for this, and further investigation is needed to pinpoint how relational savoring affects mechanisms that underlie positive engagement with health recommendations.
