Abstract

The current research examined the relationship between individual’s self-construal within friendships and satisfaction. Researchers found that individuals who reported high relational interdependent construal have more satisfying relationships. The results imply that individuals who view the self as having a social role within their personal relationships more often enjoy their friendships.
