NINA-ESTRELLA, Ruth e MARRERO CENTENO, Jesús J.. Communication Styles as Stress Predictors and Dyadic Coping in Puerto Rican Marriages. Pensam. psicol. [online]. 2020, vol.18, n.1, pp.31-41. ISSN 1657-8961. https://doi.org/10.11144/javerianacali.ppsi18-1.ecpe.
Objetive.
To evaluate the possible relationship between the communication styles (positive, negative and reserved), stress and dyadic coping.
Method.
Considering this purpose, a non-experimental quantitative study was proposed in which 121 married people participated based on their availability. Most of the participants were in their first marriage, and averaged 42 years old. The participants agreed to answer the following instruments: (a) Marital Communication Style Inventory and (b) Marital Relationship Stress Scale.
Results.
Positive and reserved communication styles are predictors of dyadic coping. It was also observed that the negative communication style is a significant predictor of stress in relationships.
Conclusion.
These results support the relevance of communication in relationships and the importance of developing positive communication styles to cope with stressful situations.
