“…Some studies have examined the impact of channel use on conflict behavior, with mixed results. In experiments, romantic partners report experiencing more positive conflict behavior in FtF versus text-based interactions but no significant differences in negative conflict behavior (Ruppel et al, 2021) or feelings of anger or distress (Pollmann et al, 2020).
