“…[4] Accordingly, the higher the commitment, the more stable and satisfactory the relationship, and the higher the partners' willingness to intensify their relational maintenance efforts for mutual adjustment (Rusbult, 1983;Schneewind & Wunderer, 2003). These interactions and interdependencies result in a reinforcing loop in which commitment can function as both predictor and criterion (see Figure 1).…”

Background: Previous research focused on relationship commitment as the outcome of high satisfaction, poor alternatives, and high investments. We propose that commitment is a prerequisite in highly satisfied couples, fostering relationship maintenance behavior such as positive dyadic coping. Method: Structural equation models identified the relationship between commitment, relationship satisfaction, and dyadic coping with data from 201 heterosexual couples with an average relationship length of 34 years. Results: The common fate model confirmed that relationship satisfaction mediated the effects between commitment and dyadic coping on a latent dyadic level. Additional analyses revealed that women's satisfaction was mainly responsible for mediating effects between both partners' commitment and dyadic coping. Conclusions: Findings support the essentiality of commitment for couples' maintenance strategies and for consistency in long-term relationships.

“…Specific personality characteristics, attitudes, competences, and behaviours influence satisfaction in long-term relationship (e.g. Epstein et al, 2013;Landis et al, 2013;Schneewind and Wunderer, 2003;Stegmann and Schmitt, 2006), and some of these qualities are clearly related to wisdom. For example, Schneewind, Wunderer, and Erkelenz (2004) found that people who believe that relationships have developmental potential demand more of their relationships, are more willing to accept divergent opinions, and are more optimistic about overcoming problems together.…”

Objectives:Human beings are social entities – our development occurs in and through interaction with others. Thus, it seems likely that relationships influence the development of wisdom, especially long-term intimate relationships in which couples share many important life experiences, and that wisdom, in turn, influences relationships. How wisdom relates to characteristics of intimate relationships has received little attention in the research literature. As a first step in a research program addressing this question, this study analyzed associations between participants’ levels of wisdom and their views of a good relationship.Design and Participants:A sample of 155 individuals aged 23-90 years participated in two sessions including semi-structured qualitative interviews and questionnaires.Measurements:The participants were interviewed about their views of a good intimate relationship. Wisdom was measured using a self-report scale and two open-ended performance measures.Results:Wisdom was significantly related to some of the content categories identified in participants’ views about a good relationship, although some correlations differed between wisdom measures. Emphasizing the relevance of mutual respect and conscious attention in relationships was related to both performance measures of wisdom. Paying considerate attention to the relationship and viewing it as a chance for personal development were each related to one measure of wisdom.Conclusions:The results support the notion that wisdom is related to how participants regulate long-term relationships. We consider them as a promising first step in a research program investigating the dynamic interrelation between wisdom and intimate relationships.
