“…The mean level of hurt caused by the incident was 4.15 ( SD = 1.05), suggesting that offenses were substantial and painful. The mean level of forgiveness was 94.39 ( SD = 35.87), which is considerably lower than the means reported in the literature for various nonoffending samples (see, for example, Orathinkal, Vansteenwegen, Enright, & Stroobants, 2007 for the range of means of the long form of EFI instrument).…”

The links between childhood victimization, subsequent emotional dysregulation, and insufficient coping skills have been repeatedly documented in the scientific literature. However, there is a gap in the literature regarding the role of forgiveness as a coping strategy and relationships between offense-specific hurt, chronic anger, and early victimization. The goals of our study were (a) to explore how offenders cope with recent unjust treatment, and test the links between type of injustice, hurt experienced due to injustice, and use of forgiveness; (b) to test the links between childhood victimization, hurt, and chronic anger; and (c) to assess the mediating role of chronic anger in relation to hurt and forgiveness. The results reveal that multiplicity and severity of victimization exposure in the prison sample are positively associated with chronic anger, but not with hurt. The type of injustice affects the level of hurt and forgiveness, while chronic anger mediates the link between hurt and forgiveness. To improve coping and promote forgiving, offenders should be helped to identify everyday sources of stress and learn to express vulnerable feelings beneath anger.

“…Psychologists define forgiveness differently across subdisciplines; however, a general consensus exists that interpersonal forgiveness involves acknowledging that one has been treated unjustly and giving-up resentment despite the injustice (Worthington, 2005). Operational definitions of forgiveness have been validated across cultures with different social norms, languages, religions, and geographic locations (Enright & Fitzgibbons, 2014;Orathinkal, Vansteenwegen, Enright, & Stroobants, 2007;Rique, et al, 1999). It is important to stress that forgiveness is not the same as condoning, excusing, pardoning, denying, or reconsiling (Enright, 2012).…”

The aim of this study was to investigate maternal grief after losing a child in relation to forgiveness and posttraumatic growth. A sample of 60 grieving mothers from Slovakia completed the following battery: The Texas Revised Inventory of Grief, a modified version of the Enright Forgiveness Inventory, and the Posttraumatic Growth Inventory. The results showed a negative association between forgiveness and grief and a strong positive association between forgiveness and posttraumatic growth, which was not moderated by the time elapsed since the loss. Semistructured interviews were conducted with 12 mothers. The data were analyzed through Consensual Qualitative Research to gain deeper understanding of forgiveness and posttraumatic growth experiences after the loss of a child. Categories and subcategories are discussed.

“…También se puede entender, de manera indirecta, en relación con la satisfacción conyugal. El hecho de que el deseo de cambio sea menor conforme pasan los años es concordante con hallazgos de estudios que apoyan que existe una mayor satisfacción conyugal en matrimonios de duración larga (Orathinkal, Vansteenwegen, Enright, Stroobants, 2007).…”

INTRODUCCIÓNDe acuerdo con los datos aportados por el Instituto Nacional de Estadística (INE), en España cada vez se producen menos matrimonios y más divorcios (INE, 2015). A la hora de estudiar las causas que se asocian a este incremento progresivo de los problemas conyugales en nuestra sociedad es importante atender a dos constructos: el ajuste conyugal y el deseo de cambio dentro de la pareja.Por ajuste conyugal entendemos el resultado de un proceso determinado por varios factores: las diferencias problemáticas entre los cónyuges, la tensión interpersonal que existe en la relación, la satisfacción diádica y la expresión afectiva (Spanier, 1976
