Finkel, Rusbult, Kumashiro, and Hannon (2002, Study 1) demonstrated a causal link between subjective commitment to a relationship and how people responded to hypothetical betrayals of that relationship. Participants primed to think about their commitment to their partner (high commitment) reacted to the betrayals with reduced exit and neglect responses relative to those primed to think about their independence from their partner (low commitment). The priming manipulation did not affect constructive voice and loyalty responses. Although other studies have demonstrated a correlation between subjective commitment and responses to betrayal, this study provides the only experimental evidence that inducing changes to subjective commitment can causally affect forgiveness responses. This Registered Replication Report (RRR) meta-analytically combines the results of 16 new direct replications of the original study, all of which followed a standardized, vetted, and preregistered protocol. The results showed little effect of the priming manipulation on the forgiveness outcome measures, but it also did not observe an effect of priming on subjective commitment, so the manipulation did not work as it had in the original study. We discuss possible explanations for the discrepancy between the findings from this RRR and the original study.

Emotional reactions to infidelity: examining the roles of self-compassion, forgiveness, rumination and cognitive appraisal
Onaylı, Selin; Erdur Baker, Özgür; Department of Educational Sciences (2019)
This study tested a model that includes the interrelationship (direct and indirect relationships) among offended partners’ self-compassion, forgiveness, rumination, cognitive appraisal and emotional reactions to infidelity. Moreover, the nature of the gender differences in reactions to infidelity was searched by testing the proposed model with invariance across gender. The participants of the study were 431 offended partners in their dating relationship that were reached by a purposive sampling method. Posi...
Perceived justice in marriage: The effects of justice sensitivity, ambivalent sexism, and gender
Şaklar, Zeynep; Sakallı, Nuray; Department of Psychology (2021-10-8)
How perceived justice in marriage (PJM) affects variables such as relationship satisfaction, commitment, and maintenance behavior have been studied extensively in the psychology literature. However, there is very little research about the factors that affect PJM. Therefore, this dissertation aims to test potential antecedents of PJM. Thus, based on the justice and gender psychology literature, justice sensitivity, ambivalent sexism, and gender were examined as the possible factors. A sequential mixed-method...

Breakup Adjustment in Young Adulthood
Barutçu Yıldırım, Kadriye Funda; Demir, Ayhan Gürbüz (2015-01-01)
The purpose of this study was to assess the ability of young adults to adjust to the breakup of a romantic relationship by examining the possible predictors. The sample comprised 140 women and 143 men. Simultaneous regression analysis indicated that initiator status, existence of a new partner, certainty of the reasons for the breakup, and perceived social support were significant predictors and accounted for 18% of the variance in the measure of adjustment to breakup.

HORTACSU, N; ORAL, A (Informa UK Limited, 1994-04-01)
In this study, differences between individuals involved in couple- and family-initiated marriages were investigated with respect to educational background, relationship duration, context and nature of interactions with partner, degree of perceived disclosure, and ratings of different reasons for marriage. Questionnaires were administered to a sample of Turkish men and women who applied for a marriage license for their first marriage. The results revealed differences between individuals involved in the two k...
