ВПЛИВ СТИЛЮ КОМУНІКАЦІЇ МОЛОДОГО ПОДРУЖЖЯ НА ЗАДОВОЛЕНІСТЬ ЇХ СІМЕЙНИМ ЖИТТЯМ

The influence of communication style on the level of marital satisfaction among young couples is investigated. A paradox is empirically established: the lowest satisfaction level is recorded in dyads with a dominant constructive (assertive) communication style, which refutes a simple linear hypothesis. It is determined that mutual adaptation and the presence of a functional interaction model specific to the couple are more crucial for marital stability than strict adherence to a theoretically “correct” style. It is proposed that enhancing marital satisfaction critically requires developing strategies for calibrating communicative norms. These strategies are aimed at eliminating high discordance and perceptual asymmetry (“blind spots”), which generate latent tension and diminish relationship quality.
