An Analysis of Conflict Resolution Profiles and the Quality of Romantic Relationships Marina Zanella Delatorre Adriana Wagner Psicología latent profiles marital relations conflict resolution relationship quality Relationship conflict This study aimed to identify conflict resolution profiles and assess relationship quality levels associated with each profile. The participants were 750 heterosexual couples living in southern Brazil. They filled out measures about conflict resolution strategies, relationship quality, and sociodemographic data. A latent profile analysis was conducted in order to classify participants regarding conflict resolution. Variance and association analyses were also conducted in order to examine relationships between the resolution profiles and other study variables. Four profiles were identified: Low Conflict/ Withdraw, Validator, Hostile, and Volatile. The Validator profile showed higher relationship quality, followed by Low Conflict/Withdraw and Volatile profiles, which did not differ from each other, and the Hostile, which showed low levels of relationship quality. We conclude that even though validation and negotiation are desirable, emotionally intense strategies may also be beneficial for couples in some contexts. 2019 artículo científico 0121-5469 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=80461245007 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/804/80461245007/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/804/80461245007/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/804/80461245007/80461245007.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/804/80461245007/movil 10.15446/rcp.v28n2.72265 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=804 Revista Colombiana de Psicología application/pdf Universidad Nacional de Colombia Revista Colombiana de Psicología (Colombia) Num.2 Vol.28
