Emotion Regulation and Relationship Satisfaction in Couple Therapy: What Happens Across Sessions
While previous studies have demonstrated significant associations between partners' emotion regulation (ER) and overall well-being, very few studies provide knowledge on ER in clinical couples, especially across couple therapy sessions. The sample consisted of 174 mixed-sex couples, predominantly white and from the western region of the United States, who attended at least the initial eight sessions of couple therapy. The current study examined t…
Past to Present: The Role of ACEs in Emotion Regulation and Emotion Regulation's Subsequent Association With Relationship Satisfaction in Couple Therapy
This study examines the longitudinal associations between relationship satisfaction and emotion regulation (ER) difficulties across 8 sessions of couple therapy. It further tests adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) as a predictor of these constructs and therapeutic alliance as a moderator of the effects of ACEs. A cross‐lagged panel model was used to test actor and partner effects in a sample of 972 different‐sex couples at intake, session four,…
Lost in translation: Therapeutic Alliance as a mediator in the relationship between teletherapy and marital satisfaction
The global impact of the SARS‐COV‐2 pandemic necessitated a rapid shift to online/teletherapy psychotherapy services. While research suggests the feasibility and efficacy of teletherapy, there is limited investigation into couple teletherapy's impact on satisfaction and therapeutic alliance. This study aimed to address this gap by examining changes in couple satisfaction during tele‐ and in‐person therapy sessions over 12 sessions and exploring w…
Sexual beliefs in couple relationships: Exploring the pathways of mindfulness, communication, and sexual functioning on sexual passion and satisfaction
Two types of sexual beliefs, growth and destiny, have been found in past research to be differentially associated with sexual and relationship outcomes; however, past research has not explored these beliefs with dyadic data nor considered common intervening variables that might be pathways through which beliefs influence outcomes. Consequently, using the sexual wholeness model, we analyzed how couples' specific sexual beliefs (growth and destiny)…

Gender and Content Differences in Domain and Focus of Homework Used in Couple Therapy
The assignment of tasks, or therapeutic homework, by a mental health professional for clients to complete provides clients with an opportunity to practice targeted skills or apply lessons learned in therapy sessions to practical situations. While the assignment of homework by mental health professionals is commonplace, less is known about the content domain of homework, or how homework might be distributed in terms of focus or actor. We present t…
Emotion dysregulation and couple relationship satisfaction of clinical couples: An actor‐partner interdependence model
Despite the pivotal role that emotion regulation is thought to occupy for individual and relational wellbeing, emotion regulation in couples has been surprisingly understudied. With a clinical sample consisting of 275 couples starting therapy from 2017 to 2022, this study sought to clarify the actor and partner effects of clinical couples' emotion dysregulation on relationship satisfaction. Our results showed that, for partners' emotion dysregula…

Therapist Interruptions: An Examination of Gender and Therapeutic Alliance in Couple Therapy
Alliance is an important predictor of therapy outcomes, and studies examining in-therapy processes that contribute to alliance are needed. This study examines the relationship between interruptions and therapeutic alliance in couple therapy. First sessions of couple therapy from a university-based clinic were coded to examine the frequency of interruptions in therapy. Interruption frequency, interruption target, and subsequent measures of therape…
A Dyadic Exploration of Marital Satisfaction as a Mediator between Religiosity and Depressive Symptoms
Substantial research has established that religiosity can be a protective factor against depression. However, little research has explored these associations within couples. Theory and previous research provide evidence that these relations may be manifest through marital satisfaction. A longitudinal Actor–Partner Interdependence Model was used to test the dyadic relations between religiosity at Time-3, marital satisfaction at Time-4, and depress…
Relationship with extended family following divorce: A closer look at contemporary times
Extended family relationships may serve as either resources or as additional stressors as families negotiate stressful life events such as divorce. As families go through several readjustments and reorganizations following divorce, extended family members both affect and are affected by these changes. Existing literature provides valuable insights regarding post-divorce extended family relationships but they were mostly conducted over 25 years ag…
