High quality relationships help maintain physical and mental health,protect brain function,and boost happiness.High quality intimate relationship is an important factor affecting individual life satisfaction and subjective well-being.However,one of the biggest obstacles to intimate relationships is conflict.Many studies have shown that adopting positive conflict coping styles in intimate relationships can effectively protect the relationship.Academic circles at home and abroad have pointed out that conflict coping style can play an intermediary role in adult attachment and intimate relationship satisfaction,but the internal mechanism of conflict coping relationship is still under in-depth study.Therefore,this paper focuses on the research on the influence of adult attachment on intimate relationship satisfaction,hoping to explore the mechanism and principle of the mediating effect of conflict coping styles on adult attachment and intimate relationship satisfaction,which can effectively improve individuals’ intimate relationship satisfaction in a short time,which is of great practical significance.This paper first verifies the relationship between adult attachment and intimate relationship satisfaction,and analyzes the mediating role of conflict coping styles in the two,and then proposes effective methods to improve conflict coping styles and intimate relationship satisfaction,specifically as follows:Study 1: The survey objects of this study were selected as 500 young and middle-aged people with love experience invited from Internet channels by means of questionnaire,and their ages were concentrated in the range of 18-35 years old,so as to study the relationship between adult attachment,conflict coping methods and intimate relationship satisfaction,and analyze the deviation in demographic variables.Study 2: On the basis of study 1,a group counseling program was developed for the purpose of improving conflict coping styles and enhancing intimate relationship satisfaction.From the questionnaire results of Study 1,24 individuals with fixed partners,low relationship satisfaction and often adopt negative conflict coping styles were selected as subjects.They were divided into experimental group and control group,and group counseling intervention was conducted for the experimental group.The control group did not intervene,and the questionnaire before and after measurement and follow-up test.The results of this study are as follows:(1)Adult attachment is negatively correlated with intimate relationship satisfaction;Intimate relationship satisfaction was negatively correlated with negative conflict coping style;And positive conflict coping style.Conflict coping style partially mediates the relationship between adult attachment and relationship satisfaction.(2)Group counseling on conflict coping styles can significantly change conflict coping styles and reduce the frequency of negative conflict coping styles,which is helpful to improve intimate relationship satisfaction,and the intervention effect is maintained one month later.
