Vengefulness: Relationships with Forgiveness, Rumination, Well-Being, and the Big Five
TLDR
This paper found that vengefulness at baseline was negatively related to change in forgiving throughout an 8-week follow-up and was negatively associated with Agreeableness and positively associated with Neuroticism.Abstract:
Because forgiveness theory has tended to neglect the role of dispositional factors, the authors present novel theorizing about the nature of vengefulness (the disposition to seek revenge following interpersonal offenses) and its relationship to forgiveness and other variables. In Study 1, vengefulness was correlated cross-sectionally with (a) less forgiving, (b) greater rumination about the offense, (c) higher negative affectivity, and (d) lower life satisfaction. Vengefulness at baseline was negatively related to change in forgiving throughout an 8-week follow-up. In Study 2, vengefulness was negatively associated with Agreeableness and positively associated with Neuroticism. Measures of the Big Five personality factors explained 30% of the variance in vengefulness.read more
