Abstract

Ovim istraživanjem htjeli smo provjeriti povezanost tjelesne aktivnosti partnera s dijadnim suočavanjem sa stresom te njihov doprinos kvaliteti veze. U online anketi sudjelovalo je 1179 žena i 162 muškarca koji su odgovorili na upitnike dijadnog suočavanja sa stresom, percepcije stresa, kvalitete veze te upitnik vezan za bavljenje tjelesnom aktivnošću. U obradu podataka su, zbog nedovoljnog broja muških sudionika, uključeni samo odgovori žena. Provođenjem analize varijance, pronašli smo povezanost tjelesne aktivnosti i dijadnog suočavanja sa stresom, i to na način da je usklađenost vježbanja partnera bitnija za dijadno suočavanje sa stresom, u odnosu na samo vježbanje. Žene u parovima koji su usklađeni prema navikama (ne)vježbanja, odnosno parovi u kojima oba partnera vježbaju ili oboje ne vježbaju, postižu više rezultate na skali dijadnog suočavanja sa stresom nego žene u parovima koji nisu usklađeni, odnosno kod kojih jedan partner vježba, a drugi ne. Ženina percepcija stresa te partnerovo i zajedničko dijadno suočavanje sa stresom pokazali su se značajnim prediktorima kvalitete veze.

Abstract (english)

Physical activity is associated with life satisfaction, which is then associated with relationship satisfaction. As dyadic coping is related to relationship quality, with this study we wanted to verify the association between physical activity and dyadic coping as well as their contribution to overall relationship quality. Participants (N=1341, 87.9% women) took part in an online survey providing answers to several questionnaires: dyadic coping, perception of stress, relationship quality and a questionnaire related to physical activity. In the data analysis, due to the insufficient number of male participants, only responses from female participants were included. By conducting a variance analysis, we found an association between physical activity and dyadic coping, in a way that the alignment of partners’ physical activity was more important for dyadic coping than the exercise itself. Women in couples who were aligned in their (non)exercise habits, i.e. couples in which both partners exercised or neither of them exercised, achieved higher results on the dyadic coping scale compared to women in couples not aligned in their exercise habits, i.e. when one partner exercised and the other did not. Women’s perception of stress as well as their partner’s and common dyadic coping were shown to be significant predictors of overall relationship quality.
