| The present study extends previous research examining the effect of perceived equity and relationship satisfaction on sexual satisfaction. Using self-report data from a random, national, repeated measures sample, the relationship between level of equity and reported level of sexual satisfaction across a fourteen-year period was examined. Utilizing growth models, results indicated that equity remained highly stable over time. Further, results indicated that equity was a statistically significant predictor of sexual satisfaction. Discussion surrounding the use of equity in relationship therapy is addressed. |
