物质主义对婚姻满意度的影响——工具性婚姻目标与伴侣支持的作用
The Effect of Materialism on Marital Satisfaction—The Role of Instrumental Marital Goals and Partner Support
摘要: 基于婚姻满意度动态目标理论,本研究旨在探讨物质主义对婚姻关系满意度的内在作用机制,通过整合工具性婚姻目标的中介作用和伴侣支持的调节作用,构建一个被调节的中介模型。本研究采用方便抽样法选取已婚参与者,回收有效答卷417份。数据分析结果显示:物质主义对婚姻关系满意度具有显著的负向直接作用,对工具性婚姻目标具有显著的正向作用;工具性婚姻目标对关系满意度具有显著的正向作用,工具性婚姻目标在物质主义与关系满意度间的中介作用显著;伴侣支持显著调节了工具性婚姻目标与关系满意度的关系,且调节了物质主义通过工具性婚姻目标影响关系满意度的中介效应,形成被调节的中介模型。本研究为物质主义和婚姻中的关系满意度的作用机制提供了更细微的理解,阐明了在婚姻满意度动态模板理论下工具性婚姻目标对物质主义倾向高的伴侣关系满意度的影响,并为伴侣支持对不重视工具性目标的配偶的作用提供了支持。
Abstract: The current study explores the mechanism of materialism on marital satisfaction based on the dynamic goal theory of marital satisfaction, constructing a moderated mediation model by integrating the mediating role of the instrumental marital goal and the moderating role of partner support to explain the relationship between materialism and marital satisfaction. In this study, married participants were selected by convenient sampling method, and 417 valid responses were collected. Results of data analysis show that materialism has a negative direct effect on the satisfaction of marriage relationship and a positive effect on the instrumental marital goal. Instrumental marital goal has a positive effect on relationship satisfaction and a mediating role between materialism and relationship satisfaction. Partner support moderates the relationship between instrumental marital goal and relationship satisfaction and moderates the mediating effect of materialism on relationship satisfaction through instrumental marital goals, forming a moderated mediation model. This study provides a more nuanced understanding of the mechanism of how materialism affect relationship satisfaction in marriage, clarifies the influence of instrumental marital goals on relationship satisfaction in partners with high materialistic tendency under the dynamic goal theory of marital satisfaction, and provides support for the role of partner support in couples who do not prioritize instrumental goals.
