Empathic Accuracy and Inaccuracy in Relationships

关系中的合作伙伴能够在讨论中准确地推断对方的私人想法和感受的程度被称为移情准确性。先前关于移情准确性的研究揭示了一个主要的悖论：尽管大多数研究发现，更强的移情理解往往有利于关系，但一些研究发现，在某些情况下，更强的移情准确性可能会损害关系。为了调和这些对比的发现，研究人员提出，当伴侣讨论日常和非威胁性问题时，移情准确性对关系有益，但当讨论关系威胁性问题时，移情准确性对关系不利。了解移情准确性对关系的好坏对于推进亲密关系中基本社会互动过程的知识非常重要。该项目开发和测试了一种理论，该理论指定了在互动中何时可能发生较高水平的移情准确性。该理论将在四项研究中进行测试，这些研究涉及长期约会情侣和已婚情侣的大样本。 ?你知道吗？是吗？你是谁？▓╣/ ┤ Á ¢ ¥ ╝ ┐ │ ¥ ╣ └ Á -Â/│ Á ¢/└ ╣À- ÀÁ¢ ¥ ┐ ╝ Á ¢ /┤ ╝ Á/│ ¥ ╣?？-%?¢╣À Â/│Á - /┤?%你知道吗？？_ ?价格__/%__/ %_？¥/¥？ /_/¥/% ©/_？`你知道吗？╝┤

The extent to which partners in a relationship are able to accurately infer each other's private thoughts and feelings during a discussion is known as empathic accuracy. Previous research on empathic accuracy has revealed a major paradox: Although most studies find that greater empathic understanding tends to be good for relationships, some studies have found that greater empathic accuracy can harm relationships in certain situations. To reconcile these contrasting findings, researchers have proposed that empathic accuracy should be good for relationships when routine and non-threatening issues are being discussed by partners, but it should be bad for relationships when relationship-threatening issues are discussed. Understanding when empathic accuracy is good or bad for relationships is important for advancing knowledge about basic social interaction processes in close relationships. This project develops and tests a theory that specifies when higher versus lower levels of empathic accuracy are likely to occur in interactions. The theory will be tested in four studies involving large samples of long-term dating couples and married couples. ? ¢┐│© ┤╣└Á╝¢Á ║©Á?_Á/ /¢ ¢?│╣/% ║©?▓╣/ ┤Á¢¥╝┐│¥╣└Á -Â/│Á ¢/└╣À- ÀÁ¢¥┐╝Á¢ /┤ ╝Á/│¥╣?¢ ¥? -%?¢╣À Â/│Á - /┤?%Á¢│Á¥ /┬╣Á¥` /┤ │?Â?╝_╣¥` ? ?║¥╣_/% ▓/╝À/╣╣À /┤ ÁÀ?¥╣/¥╣? /┤ _/╝╣¥/% ©/╝_?` /┤ ┤╣¢│?╝┤
