“…Research examining the link between actual performed sacrifices and personal and relationship well-being has not yielded consistent results. Some studies found that sacrifice was positively associated with well-being (e.g., Chen & Li, 2007; Lan et al, 2017; Ruppel & Curran, 2012), whereas others documented that sacrifice was negatively related to well-being (e.g., Totenhagen & Curran, 2011; Whitton et al, 2007; Young & Curran, 2016). Others still found no association between the two (e.g., Impett, Gable, & Peplau, 2005; Righetti, Gere, Hofmann, Visserman, & Van Lange, 2016; Totenhagen, Curran, Serido, & Butler, 2013), a finding that is consistent with preliminary results from a recent meta-analysis of the link between actual performed sacrifice and relationship well-being (Righetti et al, 2019).…”
