The transition to cohabitation is a major developmental milestone for romantic couples, yet it is linked to myriad negative outcomes. This study extends the communication interdependence perspective (CIP) to understand the role of technology use in relationship transitions (i.e., the transition to cohabitation). Couples (N = 258 individuals) completed an online survey before and after transitioning to cohabitation to test actor and partner effects of technology integration, segmentation, and difficulty transitioning on relationship satisfaction and ambivalence. Results showed that for actors, constructive integration had positive associations and destructive integration had negative associations with relational outcomes. Difficulty transitioning between channels of communication also had negative implications for relationships. Longitudinal results indicated that negative integration patterns could sometimes buffer against relationship disillusionment. Theoretical implications for the CIP and practical implications for couples are discussed.

沟通的相互依赖和同居:人际交往技术在过渡时期夫妻满意度和幻想破灭中的作用

过渡到同居是浪漫情侣的一个重要发展里程碑,但它与无数负面结果有关。这项研究扩展了通信相互依赖的观点(CIP),以了解技术使用在关系转变(即向同居的转变)中的作用。夫妻(N = 258 人)在过渡到同居前后完成了一项在线调查,以测试技术整合、分割和过渡困难对关系满意度和矛盾心理的影响。结果表明,对于行为者而言,建设性整合与关系结果具有正相关,而破坏性整合与关系结果具有负相关。沟通渠道之间的转换困难也会对人际关系产生负面影响。纵向结果表明,消极的整合模式有时可以缓冲关系幻灭。讨论了 CIP 的理论意义和夫妻的实际意义。
