“…A related question asked in this study is whether there is a relationship between the developmental maturity of one spouse and the relationship control from the other spouse and their offspring. Several studies have indicated modest positive correlations between spouses personality (Loehlin & Nicols, 1976;Lesnik-Oberstein & Cohen, 1984;Guttman & Zohar, 1987;Tambs, 1987). Although nobody has studied maturity specifically, it is reasonable to expect a positive correlation for this variable as well.…”

The psychodynamic and the communication/systemic perspectives are commonly considered as two entirely different approaches to psychopathology. The current study is an effort to bridge these opposing perspectives empirically. Maturity of personality, measured according to psychoanalytic principles by the Consensus Couples Rorschach, and relationship control in family communication, as measured by a new coding system (RCC) in an observational study, were related. The results indicate that low level of maturity is associated with egocentric and self-disqualifying communication in situations of conflict, but not in situations involving no or moderate conflict. Additionally, mature wives were prone to react to situations involving perceptual conflict by communicating dominantly, whereas immature wives communicated in more submissive ways. Reversely, the more mature the husbands were, the more they displayed a submissive style of communicating when in conflict.
