The proposed double ABCM model of marital satisfaction draws from the double ABCX theory of family behavior framework to incorporate pre-marital factors associated with getting married that carry-over into the marriage itself; it also integrates marital demands, circumstances, and perceptions that ultimately contribute to marital satisfaction. Bodies of literature related to marriage intentions, marital beliefs, newlywed adjustment, and marital maintenance are integrated into the constructs of the model. The double ABCM model expands the structure of the original double ABCX framework in several ways, including by explicitly depicting broader contextual factors that influence intra-relational processes, diagraming the shared and unshared aspects of most constructs, and illustrating a nonlinear passage of time. Limitations and implications are discussed.

婚姻满意度的双ABCM模型

所提出的婚姻满意度双ABCM模型借鉴了家庭行为框架的双ABCX理论，将与结婚相关的婚前因素纳入婚姻本身；它还整合了最终有助于婚姻满意度的婚姻要求、环境和看法。与婚姻意图、婚姻信念、新婚调整和婚姻维持相关的文献主体被整合到模型的构建中。双 ABCM 模型以多种方式扩展了原始双 ABCX 框架的结构，包括通过明确描述影响内部关系过程的更广泛的上下文因素、绘制大多数构造的共享和非共享方面以及说明时间的非线性流逝。
