Abstract

Recent evidence suggests that domain-specific marital power imbalances may sometimes be tools for healthy role division. We propose an online survey to identify moderating factors in the effect of power imbalances on positive and negative outcomes. Expected findings would form a foundation for encouragement of adaptive role division in counseling.
