AbstractThe attitude toward spouse’s emotion expression is one of the possible factors affecting intimacy. This study intended to compare the attitudes toward spouse’s emotion express among women with high and low level of intimacy. A qualitative approach with a descriptive phenomenological method was used in this study. The study population includes married women in Tehran 2021. Considering saturation principle and using a purposive sampling method, a sample of 20 individuals was selected. Data collection was done through semi-structured interviews and their analysis was done with the seven-step method of Colaizzi’s phenomenological analysis. Data analysis led to seven main themes in each group. The main themes extracted from the group of high emotional intimacy were: “comprehensive and positive perspective”, “flexibility”, “belief in the role of self-agency”, “necessity of facilitating conversations”, “necessity of determining common and private boundaries”, “necessity of regulating expressiveness” and “attitude dependent on emotion and its motivating factor”; The main themes extracted from the low emotional intimacy group included “negative and limited perspective”, “inflexibility”, “low self-confidence”, “role of rationality in managing emotion”, “non-expression of emotion as its absence”, “gender-related expectations” and “labels and expectations forming attitude”. Based on the results it seems that the differences in the attitudes of these two groups are often based on the degree of flexibility and realism towards spouse’s emotion expression and also considering one's own role in this regard.

This study aimed to investigate the mediating role of cognitive emotion regulation in the relationship between attachment styles and attitudes towards marriage. This was an applied and correlational study based on structural equation modeling. The population of this study included all single young of Isfahan uinversity; a total of 310 participants were selected using available sampling method. Data were gathered using attachment style questionnaire (Besharat, 2014), cognitive emotion regulation questionnaire (Garnevsky et al. 2001), and attitude toward marriage questionnaire (Bratin and Rosen, 1998), and were analyzed using structural equation modeling via AMOS-26 software. The results showed that secure attachment style has a positive relationship with realistic attitude towards marriage and avoidant and ambivalent attachment styles have a negative and significant relationship with realistic attitude towards marriage. A significant positive relationship was observed between the compromise strategy in emotion regulation and realistic attitude towards marriage. Also, the uncompromising strategy had a significant negative relationship with the realistic attitude towards marriage and a significant positive relationship with the pessimistic attitude towards marriage (p<.01). Also, the findings showed that cognitive emotion regulation plays a mediating role in the relationship between attachment styles and attitudes towards marriage. In general, it can be said that people who have a secure attachment style can regulate their emotions properly and ultimately have a positive attitude towards marriage, which can be considered in premarital counseling.

The main family and the quality of the couple's relationship with it is one of the factors that, according to clinical reports, plays a decisive role in creating and fueling marital conflicts. The purpose of this research was to investigate and classify information based on the couples' lived experience of the consequences of the main families' involvement in their joint lives and to classify the strategies used by couples in these interventions. The study method was qualitative and phenomenological. The sample was 13 couples from the city of Kerman, who were selected with a purposeful method. Then, semi-structured interviews were conducted with them, and the information was analyzed by Colaizzi method. The results of the analysis of the interviews showed that the consequences of interventions included two categories of personal consequences and interpersonal consequences. And the strategies used by couples in managing these interferences include three categories of individual strategies with the sub-themes of self-expression, passive dealing with interferences, adopting an indirect approach; couple strategies with the sub-themes of harmony and unity with the spouse, increasing intimacy with the aim of creating unity; And the communication strategies with the family were with the sub-themes of boundary building, family acceptance and reframing of interventions. It seems that the results of this research can help counselors and psychologists in counseling centers and quasi-family centers and educational institutions to have a more realistic analysis of the involvement of the main families in the married life of couples.

در جامعه ایران ازدواج و تشکیل خانواده تحت تاثیر عوامل مختلف، تغییرات ساختاری و کارکردی بسیاری به خود دیده است. در پژوهش حاضر برای تبیین گرایش جوانان نسبت به ازدواج، از چارچوب نظری پارادایم زناشویی استفاده شده است. این پارادایم توسط دو سامانۀ بزرگ از باورها، یکی «باور به متأهل شدن» و «باور به متأهل ماندن» در قالب 6 متغیر زمانبندی، فرایند، برجستگی، ماندگاری، زمینه و مرکزیت زناشویی، بر رفتار و قصد زناشویی تاثیر می گذارد. این مطالعه به روش «پیمایش» انجام گرفته و جمعیت آماری آن را «کلیه دختران و پسران جوان ساکن شهر تهران در سال 1401» تشکیل داده اند. شیوه نمونهگیری از نوع «نمونهگیری چند مرحلهای» بوده و حجم نمونه برابر با 355 نفر می باشند. ابزار جمع آوری داده ها، «پرسشنامه» بوده و اعتبار مفاهیم از طریق اعتبار صوری و سازه و نیز پایایی با کمک آزمون آلفای کرونباخ محاسبه شده است. نتایج نشان می دهند که حدود نیمی از جوانان مورد مطالعه در شهر تهران رفتار زناشویی مقیدانه ای دارند که به لحاظ هنجاری بیانگر آن است که هیچ رابطه ای با جنس مخالف ندارند. در بررسی رابطه بین دو سامانه «باور به متاهل شدن» و «باور به متاهل ماندن» مشاهده گردید که رفتار زناشویی مقیدانه جوانان بیش از هر چیزی متاثر از متغیرهای سامانه «باور به متاهل ماندن» است تا «باور به متاهل شدن؛ به عبارتی جوانانی که در سطوح مختلف رابطه مقیدانه ای با جنس مخالف دارند؛ در حفظ، تعهد و نقش های زناشویی آینده نیز بهتر و مقیدتر عمل می کنند.
