目前的工作调查人格和人际交往过程如何结合联合收割机来预测关系质量的变化。个性和情感相似性的措施，收集在实验室的互动，从一个横截面样本的约会夫妇（研究1）和一个为期一年的纵向研究的新婚夫妇（研究2）。结果表明，情绪相似性介导的人格相似性和关系质量之间的关联（研究1和2），情绪收敛性介导的人格收敛性和关系满意度之间的关联（研究2）。这些结果表明，个性的相似性和趋同性可能会通过促进伴侣共同情感体验的相似性和趋同性而有益于关系。研究结果还支持模型，将合作伙伴的持久的特质和夫妇的适应过程作为关系结果的前因。
The current work investigates how personality and interpersonal processes combine to predict change in relationship quality. Measures of personality and emotion similarity were collected during laboratory interactions from a cross-sectional sample of dating couples (Study 1) and a 1-year longitudinal study of newlywed married couples (Study 2). Results showed that emotion similarity mediated the association between personality similarity and relationship quality (Studies 1 and 2) and that emotion convergence mediated the association between personality convergence and relationship satisfaction (Study 2). These results indicate that similarity and convergence in personality may benefit relationships by promoting similarity and convergence in partners’ shared emotional experiences. Findings also lend support to models that integrate partners’ enduring traits and couples’ adaptive processes as antecedents of relationship outcomes.
