Sažetak | Cilj istraživanja bio je ispitati povezanost osobnog stila rješavanja sukoba u romantičnoj vezi, uspješnog rješavanja sukoba i kvalitete veze, te medijacijsku ulogu uspješnog rješavanja sukoba u odnosu između stilova rješavanja sukoba i uspješnosti veze. U istraživanju je sudjelovala 431 osoba od kojih je 326 bilo ženskog spola a 105 muškog spola, od kojih 105 sudionika nije trenutno bilo u romantičnoj vezi dok ih je 326 bilo u romantičnoj vezi. Svi sudionici bili su punoljetne osobe u starosti od 18 do 60 godina (M = 24,17, SD = 4,68). Sudionici su morali zadovoljavati tri preduvjeta: da su punoljetni, da su bili barem u jednoj romantičnoj vezi u minimalnom trajanju od 30 dana i da nisu u braku. Najveći dio uzorka činile su osobe sa završenom srednjom školom. Prosječno trajanje veze bilo je 34,72 mjeseca. Za prikupljanje podataka provedena je anketa u programu LimeSurvey, a podatci su analizirani u IBM SPSS Statistic 23 programskom paketu. Kako bi odgovorili na postavljene probleme provedena je faktorska analiza, t-test, Pearsonov koeficijent korelacije i medijacijska analiza. Rezultati ukazuju na to da postoji slaba pozitivna povezanost između aktivnog suočavanja i uspješnog rješavanja sukoba i umjerena pozitivna povezanost između aktivnog suočavanja i uspješnosti veze. Verbalna agresija slabo je negativno povezana s uspješnim rješavanjem sukoba i umjereno negativno povezana s uspješnosti veze. Zbog niske pouzdanosti, faktor fizičke agresije s odgovarajućim tvrdnjama je izbačen i daljnja analiza se za fizičku agresiju nije mogla provjeriti. Popuštanje/povlačenje je značajno negativno povezano s uspješnim rješavanjem sukoba, ali ta povezanost je niska te ne postoji statistički značajna povezanost između popuštanja/povlačenja i uspješnosti veze. Postoji značajna visoka pozitivna povezanost između uspješnog rješavanja sukoba i uspješnosti veze. Uspješno rješavanje sukoba je pozitivni medijator između aktivnog suočavanja s problemima u vezi i uspješnosti veze pri čemu je medijacija djelomična. Uspješno rješavanje sukoba negativni medijator između popuštanja/povlačenja i verbalne agresije te uspješnosti veze pri čemu je medijacija potpuna. |
Sažetak (engleski) | The aim of the study was to examine the relationship between personal conflict resolution styles in romantic relationships, successful conflict resolution, and relationship quality, as well as the mediating role of successful conflict resolution in the link between conflict resolution styles and relationship success. The study included 431 participants, of whom 326 were female and 105 male. Among them, 105 participants were not currently in a romantic relationship, while 326 were. All participants were adults, aged between 18 and 60 years (M = 24,17, SD = 4,68). Participants had to meet three criteria: they had to be adult (legal age of 18), have been in at least one romantic relationship lasting a minimum of 30 days, and not be married. The majority of the sample consisted of individuals with a high school diploma. The average duration of the relationships was 34.72 months. Data were collected through a survey conducted using the LimeSurvey platform, and analyzed using the IBM SPSS Statistics 23 software package. To address the research questions, factor analysis, t-tests, Pearson correlation coefficients, and mediation analysis were conducted. The results indicate a weak positive correlation between active coping and successful conflict resolution, and a moderate positive correlation between active coping and relationship success. Verbal aggression was weakly negatively correlated with successful conflict resolution and moderately negatively correlated with relationship success. Due to low reliability, the physical aggression factor and its corresponding statements were excluded, and further analysis of physical aggression could not be conducted. Yielding/withdrawal was significantly negatively correlated with successful conflict resolution, although this correlation was weak, and there was no statistically significant correlation between yielding/withdrawal and relationship success. There was a significant strong positive correlation between successful conflict resolution and relationship success. Successful conflict resolution was also a positive mediator between active problem confrontation in relationships and relationship success, showing partial mediation. Furthermore, successful conflict resolution fully mediated the negative relationships between yielding/withdrawing, verbal aggression, and relationship success. |
