Abstract
This study examines positive behaviors during conflict in romantic relationships by analyzing real-life interactions of 77 young adult couples. Using ecological momentary assessment, audio recordings, and physiological measurements, the research explores the impact of positive behaviors during conflict such as validation, warmth, and playfulness on health outcomes and electrodermal activity.
