婚姻压力与婚姻质量：婚姻承诺和夫妻支持的调节作用

摘要/Abstract

摘要： 选取北京389对夫妻,采用婚姻压力、婚姻质量、婚姻承诺和夫妻支持问卷,探讨了婚姻压力和婚姻质量、婚姻承诺和夫妻支持的现状,以及承诺和支持在压力对婚姻质量影响中的调节效应。结果发现：（1）丈夫的婚姻质量、婚姻承诺及提供信息支持的水平显著高于妻子。（2）婚姻压力显著负向预测夫妻各自的婚姻质量,但只有妻子感知的婚姻压力能显著负向预测丈夫的婚姻质量。（3）婚姻承诺和夫妻支持的调节作用存在性别差异,即自身和配偶的承诺和支持水平,只能在妻子的婚姻压力对自身婚姻质量的预测中起到调节作用,而丈夫身上并未发现这一效应。

Abstract: The affect mechanism by which marital stress exerts influence on couples′ marital quality is still unclear so far. We used convenience sampling to extract 389 couples in Beijing, and all couples fulfilled the self-report questionnaires on marital stress, marital quality, marital commitment and spouse support. Based on the study, we explored the status of marital stress and marital quality, and the moderating effect of marital commitment and support on marital quality. Following results were found: 1)husband′s scores on marital quality, marital commitment and information support were significantly higher than wife′s. 2)Individual′s marital stress significantly predicted his(her)marital quality. Wife′s marital stress significantly predicted husband′s marital quality. 3)Wife′s and her partner′s perception of marital commitment and couples′ support were moderators of the relationship between marital stress and marital quality. However, this effect was not found in husband.
