Self-concept clarity is an individual resource that is associated with couple relationship well-being.

Abstract

Self-concept clarity is an individual resource that is associated with couple relationship well-being. In two dyadic studies, the authors investigated whether and how selfconcept clarity has implications for both partners' relationship satisfaction. Study 1 tested and supported the hypothesis that self-concept clarity concurrently predicts own and partner's relationship satisfaction through couple identity in a sample of 202 dating couples. Study 2 tested and supported the hypothesis that self-concept clarity predicts longitudinal change in own and partner's relationship satisfaction through positive (i.e., supportive and common) dyadic coping behaviors in a sample of 97 married couples. The findings clarify and expand the benefits of self-concept clarity for partners' relational well-being.
