这项研究考察了因果归因与婚姻满意度之间的纵向关系，并测试了可能解释这些变量之间发现的任何纵向关联的竞争假设。 130对夫妇提供了关于消极伴侣行为、婚姻满意度、抑郁和自尊的归因数据，这些数据在相隔12个月的2个点上提供。如果配偶对伴侣的消极行为做出非善意的归因，一年后他们的婚姻满意度就会降低。这一发现并不是由于抑郁、自尊或最初的婚姻满意度造成的，当报告慢性个人或婚姻障碍的人被排除时，也会出现这一结果。结果支持归因与婚姻满意度之间可能存在因果关系。
This study examined the longitudinal relation between causal attributions and marital satisfaction and tested rival hypotheses that might account for any longitudinal association found between these variables. Data on attributions for negative partner behaviors, marital satisfaction, depression, and self-esteem were provided by 130 couples at 2 points separated by 12 months. To the extent that spouses made nonbenign attributions for negative partner behavior, their marital satisfaction was lower a year later. This finding was not due to depression, self-esteem, or initial level of marital satisfaction, and also emerged when persons reporting chronic individual or marital disorder were removed. Results support a possible causal relation between attributions and marital satisfaction.
