Relationship among Executive Function, Family Chaos and Marital Quality in Couples

目的:考察夫妻执行功能和家庭混乱与夫妻婚姻质量的关系以及这一关系模式在丈夫和妻子群体中的差异。方法:以305对年轻夫妻为被试,采用执行功能行为评定量表成人版(BRIEF-A)评估其执行功能,采用混乱、嘈杂、秩序量表(CHAOS)评估家庭混乱程度,采用夫妻适应量表(DAS)评估丈夫和妻子的婚姻质量。结果:夫妻的执行功能与其婚姻质量之间呈显著正相关;家庭混乱与夫妻婚姻质量之间呈显著负相关;对于妻子来说,执行功能和家庭混乱对其婚姻质量分别具有独特效应;对于丈夫而言,执行功能和家庭混乱对婚姻质量的影响不仅存在独特效应,而且还存在交互效应。与高混乱家庭相比,低混乱家庭中丈夫较高水平的执行功能会更为显著地预测其较高的婚姻质量。结论:执行功能这一个体因素和家庭混乱这一环境因素与夫妻婚姻质量均密切相关,且这一关系模式和作用机制在丈夫和妻子群体中存在差异。

Methods： A total of 305 Chinese young couples participated in this study.
