良好调节的情绪，无论是在人体内还是在关系伙伴之间，都在促进健康和幸福方面发挥着关键作用。目前的研究调查了39对异性恋夫妇的共同体重状况（双方都是健康体重，都超重，一个健康体重和一个超重），作为在讨论他们共同的生活方式选择时两种人际情感模式的预测因子。第一种模式是共同调节（co-regulation），在这种模式下，伴侣之间的情感随着时间的推移呈现出一种抑制模式，并最终恢复到自我平衡的水平。第二种，共失调，是指伴侣的情感被放大，远离了体内平衡。我们演示了如何使用耦合线性振荡器（CLO）模型来区分共调节和共失调。正如预测的那样，体重正常的夫妇和混合体重的夫妇（其中男性比女性重）表现出共同调节，但体重超重的夫妇和混合体重的夫妇（其中女性更重）表现出共同调节失调。这些结果表明，女性超重的异性恋夫妇可能面临巨大的共同调节挑战，这可能会损害双方的幸福。研究结果还表明，区分各种人际情绪动态对于理解人际情绪与健康之间的联系至关重要。
Well-regulated emotions, both within people and between relationship partners, play a key role in facilitating health and well-being. The present study examined 39 heterosexual couples’ joint weight status (both partners are healthy-weight, both overweight, one healthy-weight and one overweight) as a predictor of two interpersonal emotional patterns during a discussion of their shared lifestyle choices. The first pattern, co-regulation, is one in which partners’ coupled emotions show a dampening pattern over time and ultimately return to homeostatic levels. The second, co-dysregulation, is one in which partners’ coupled emotions are amplified away from homeostatic balance. We demonstrate how a coupled linear oscillator (CLO) model can be used to distinguish co-regulation from co-dysregulation. As predicted, healthy-weight couples and mixed-weight couples in which the man was heavier than the woman displayed co-regulation, but overweight couples and mixed-weight couples in which the woman was heavier showed co-dysregulation. These results suggest that heterosexual couples in which the woman is overweight may face formidable co-regulatory challenges that could undermine both partners’ well-being. The results also demonstrate the importance of distinguishing between various interpersonal emotional dynamics for understanding connections between interpersonal emotions and health.
