- Abstract
This exploratory study aimed to identify the clinical correlates of partner's attributions in 165 couples beginning couple therapy. Results revealed that marital satisfaction, the interpersonal problem of dominance, and psychological distress were significatively linked to men's attributions. Marital satisfaction, the interpersonal problem of the tendency to self-sacrifice, and women's age were significatively associated with women's attributions. At a dyadic level, only men's marital satisfaction was linked to women's causality attributions. The importance of studying both dyadic and individual correlates of attributions is emphasized.
