心血管反应性是密切关系质量与心血管疾病相关的潜在机制。有两种模型将催产素描述为另一种机制。“平静和联系”模型假设积极的关系经历与催产素水平和反应之间存在关联，而“照料和成为朋友”模型强调消极的关系经历在唤起催产素释放方面的作用。在这项对180对年轻夫妇的研究中，关系质量与血浆催产素水平呈微弱的显著负相关，积极和消极的夫妻互动都没有引起血浆催产素的变化。消极的夫妻互动引起了显著的心血管反应，尤其是在女性中。因此，在迄今为止对这些问题进行的最大规模的研究中，几乎没有人支持“冷静和联系”模式的关键原则，只有非常有限的人支持“照顾和成为朋友”模式。然而，调查结果与以下观点是一致的，即CVR有助于关系困难对健康的影响。
Cardiovascular reactivity is a potential mechanism underlying associations of close relationship quality with cardiovascular disease. Two models describe oxytocin as another mechanism. The “calm and connect” model posits an association between positive relationship experiences and oxytocin levels and responses, whereas the “tend and befriend” model emphasizes the effects of negative relationship experiences in evoking oxytocin release. In this study of 180 younger couples, relationship quality had a small, marginally significant inverse association with plasma oxytocin levels, and neither positive nor negative couple interactions evoked change in plasma oxytocin. Negative couple interactions evoked significant cardiovascular reactivity, especially among women. Hence, in the largest study of these issues to date, there was little support for key tenets of the “calm and connect” model, and only very modest support for the ”tend and befriend” model. However, findings were consistent with the view that CVR contributes to the effects of relationship difficulties on health.
