TL;DR: In the International Sexuality Description Project, a total of 17,804 participants from 62 cultural regions completed the RelationshipQuestionnaire (RQ), a self-report measure of adult romantic attachment as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: As part of the International Sexuality Description Project, a total of 17,804 participants from 62 cultural regions completedthe RelationshipQuestionnaire(RQ), a self-reportmeasure of adult romanticattachment. Correlational analyses within each culture suggested that the Model of Self and the Model of Other scales of the RQ were psychometrically valid within most cultures. Contrary to expectations, the Model of Self and Model of Other dimensions of the RQ did not underlie the four-category model of attachment in the same way across all cultures. Analyses of specific attachment styles revealed that secure romantic attachment was normative in 79% of cultures and that preoccupied romantic attachment was particularly prevalent in East Asian cultures. Finally, the romantic attachment profiles of individual nations were correlated with sociocultural indicators in ways that supported evolutionary theories of romantic attachment and basic human mating strategies.

TL;DR: This article examined associations between some dimensions of religiosity and implicit racial prejudice and found that right-wing authoritarianism was positively associated with the race-IAT effect, while Christian orthodoxy was negatively related (β = -.26).
Abstract: This study examined associations between some dimensions of religiosity and implicit racial prejudice. Implicit racial prejudice was measured with S. D. Farnham's (1998) Implicit Association Test (IAT), a software program that records reaction time as participants categorize names (of Blacks and Whites) and adjectives (pleasant or unpleasant). Participants also completed self-report measures of religious fundamentalism, Christian orthodoxy, religious orientations (i.e., intrinsic, extrinsic, quest), right-wing authoritarianism, and social desirability. White college students took significantly longer to categorize names and adjectives in one IAT condition (White-unpleasant, Black-pleasant) than in a second IAT condition (White-pleasant, Black-unpleasant), the race-IAT effect. A multiple regression analysis revealed that right-wing authoritarianism was positively associated with the race-IAT effect (β = .31), Christian orthodoxy was negatively related (β = -.26), and religious fundamentalism (β = .02) and ...

TL;DR: In this paper, three types of negative emotion (hard, soft, and fear based) were believed to be integral to functioning in close interpersonal relationships and Confirmatory Factor Analysis was used to predict relationship functioning.
Abstract: Three types of negative emotion (hard, soft, and fear based) were believed to be integral to functioning in close interpersonal relationships. Hard emotion includes feeling angry, soft emotion includes feeling sad or hurt, and fear-based emotion includes feeling anxious or threatened. Married persons (studies 1 and 3) and college roommates (study 2) rated the extent to which they would feel different emotions in response to a variety of negative partner behaviors. Confirmatory Factor Analysis supported the distinction between the three types of emotion. Although hard and soft negative emotions were highly positively correlated, they had opposite effects when used to predict relationship functioning. After controlling for shared variance between the emotions, soft emotion was associated with positive relationship functioning (high satisfaction, low conflict, and low avoidance) and hard emotion was associated with negative relationship functioning (low satisfaction, high conflict, and high avoidance). In contrast, fear-based emotion was strongly, positively, and uniquely associated with relationship anxiety.
