AFFECTIVE PROCESSING FOLLOWING RELATIONSHIP DISSOLUTION

单方面或双边的亲密浪漫关系的切断是生活中最痛苦的心理经历之一。本研究的主要目的是为了更全面地了解浪漫伴侣关系破裂后情感处理的结构、变化、过程和相关关系，并更好地阐明个体分离的过程。经验抽样法将用于收集60名刚刚结束一段恋爱关系的本科生和研究生以及20名因家庭暴力而住在收容所的成年女性在30天内的情感状态的日常日记数据，以检验关系后情感的因素结构，调查个体内部的差异和情感处理随时间的变化。并在个体变异和变化中识别个体间差异的模式。验证性因素分析、动态因素建模、潜在增长曲线分析和情感状态随时间的衰减振荡特性的评估将用于评估个体在应对解散体验时经历和循环爱、愤怒和悲伤的程度。研究结果将为人们在失恋后如何悲伤提供一个发展的视角，解决情感状态随时间变化和变化的动态本质，并为失去浪漫关系后保持痛苦心理功能的个人的应对方式提供有用的信息。

The unilateral or bilateral severing of a close romantic relationship is one of life's most distressing psychological experiences. The primary intention of this research is to develop a more complete understanding of the structure, variability, course, and correlates of affective processing that typically follow the dissolution of romantic pair-bonds and to elucidate better the process through which individuals become unattached. The Experience-Sampling Method will be used to collect daily diary data on affective states from 60 undergraduate and graduate students who have recently ended a dating relationship and 20 adult women in a residential shelter for domestic abuse over a 30-day period in order to examine the factor structure of post-relationship affect, to investigate intraindividual variation and change in affective processing over time, and to identify patterns of interindividual differences in intraindividual variation and change. Confirmatory factor analysis, dynamic factor modeling, latent growth curve analysis, and evaluation of the dampening oscillatory properties of affective states over time will be used to assess the extent to which individuals experience and cycle through love, anger, and sadness as they cope with the dissolution experience. The results will case a developmental light on how individuals grieve the end of romantic relationships, address the dynamic nature of variations and changes in affective states over time, and provide useful information related to the coping styles of individuals who maintain distressed psychological functioning following the loss of a romantic relationship.
