“…After reverse scoring seven items, items are summed to create a total score ranging from 16 to 80, with higher scores representing higher perceptions of relational humility. Psychometric data support the one-factor structure via a confirmatory factor analysis, χ 2 (101, N = 196) = 168.21, p < .001, CFI = .96, SRMR = .05, RMSEA = .06, with Cronbach's alpha coefficients ranging from .81 to .95 (Davis et al, 2011;Farrell et al, 2015;Nonterah et al, 2016). The RHS demonstrated discriminant and incremental validity; HEXACO-PI Honesty-Humility subscale scores (Lee & Ashton, 2004) were positively related to RHS (r = .56; Davis et al, 2011).…”

“…The Relational Humility Scale (RHS; Davis et al, 2011) is a self-report measure that assesses an individual’s perception of a target person’s humility. The measure consists of 16 items, originally with three subscales: Global Humility, Superiority, and Accurate View of Self, yet a total score is recommended (Davis et al, 2011, Farrell et al, 2015; Nonterah et al, 2016). Items are rated on a 5-point Likert-type scale ranging from 1 ( strongly disagree) to 5 ( strongly agree).…”

“…Conversely, when supervisees view supervisors as lacking humility they may perceive their supervisors as selfish and invested in their own interests, and thus supervisees may exercise caution to protect themselves (Davis et al, 2013). The theoretical proposition that relational humility regulates social bonds (Davis et al, 2010(Davis et al, , 2011(Davis et al, , 2013Farrell et al, 2015;Nonterah et al, 2016) was supported by links to greater quality relationships (Farrell et al, 2015) and forgiveness (e.g., Davis et al, 2011). Despite the model's applicability to a wide range of relationship types and populations, researchers have largely studied college students (Davis et al, 2011(Davis et al, , 2013 and perceptions of humility within romantic relationships (e.g., Davis et al, 2013;Farrell et al, 2015).…”

Applying the relational humility model to address gaps in the clinical supervision literature, we tested the interpersonal constructs of relational humility, supervisory working alliance, and relational behavior as predictors of supervisee nondisclosure (i.e., clinically-related and supervision-related nondisclosure). We hypothesized that relational humility moderates the relation between supervisory working alliance and supervision-related nondisclosure and that the supervisory working alliance and relational behavior each uniquely predicts supervisee nondisclosure. Self-report data from 312 trainees in the United States receiving clinical supervision across training settings found relational humility, supervisory working alliance, and relational behavior explained over a quarter of the variance in the multivariate construct of supervisee nondisclosure. Relational humility significantly moderated (and amplified) the inverse relation between the supervisory working alliance and supervision-related nondisclosure. The supervisory working alliance and relational behavior did not uniquely predict clinically-related or supervision-related nondisclosure. Results are discussed for their practical, theoretical, and research implications.

“…High-stress levels during the transition to parenthood may activate more negative cognitions and blame in partners than usual. For instance, past research has demonstrated that greater perceived stress during the transition to parenthood is related to lower perceptions of partners’ relational humility, or degree of humbleness (Nonterah et al, 2016). Perceived stress during the transition to parenthood may also increase the risk of hostile partner attributions.…”

“…Based on past research (Epifanio et al, 2015; Nonterah et al, 2016), we first hypothesized that increased levels of general perceived stress and parenting stress would each uniquely lead to increased levels of psychological IPV over the transition to parenthood (Figure 1). Second, we hypothesized that increases in hostile attributions would mediate the link between increases in stress and increases in IPV over time.…”

The transition to parenthood is often accompanied by increased parental stress levels as well as more frequent partner conflict, relationship distress, and intimate partner violence (IPV). Objective: Using the framework of the vulnerability-stress-adaptation model (Karney & Bradbury, Psychological Bulletin, 1995, 118, p. 3), the current study investigated the extent to which changes in hostile attributions might explain the link between changes in stress (e.g., life stress and parenting stress) and changes in psychological IPV across the transition to parenthood, as well as whether trait hostility increased risk of hostile attributions in the face of stress. Method: Ninety-eight mixed-gender couples completed questionnaires during the third trimester of pregnancy and again at 1-and 2-year postpartum. Results: Multilevel modeling analyses demonstrated that changes in hostile attributions significantly mediated the link between changes in stress and psychological IPV for both men and women over the transition to parenthood. Further, for men lower in trait hostility, increases in both life and parenting stress were associated with increases in hostile attributions. In contrast, men high in trait hostility had high levels of hostile attributions over time regardless of stress levels. Finally, trait hostility did not moderate the link between stress and hostile attributions for women. Conclusion: This study adds to the growing body of literature on mechanisms explaining the link between stress and changes in relationship functioning over the transition to parenthood. Interventions to increase adaptive processes in the face of stress and reduce hostile attributions during the transition to parenthood may help to prevent relationship deterioration and psychological IPV during this time.
