Abstract

This study examined whether trait mindfulness explains forgiveness within and between a sample of Latinx couples. Dyadic analyses revealed significant actor and partner effects, showing that one partner’s mindfulness is linked to their own and partner’s tendency to forgive. Findings highlight mindfulness as an interpersonal strength in Latinx relationships.
