Communicating unforgiveness

In this qualitative study, we are investigating how people choose to communicate their unforgiveness in interpersonal relationships.

Revenge in romantic relationships: A scoping review

 Revenge in interpersonal relationships including romantic ones, has been studied by researchers from different disciplines, including social psychology (e.g., Boon et al., 2009, 2011; Rasmussen & Boon, 2014), economics (Amegashie & Runkel, 2012), communications (Yoshimura, 2007; Yoshimura & Boon, 2012), and neuroscience (Chester & DeWall, 2016; de Quervain et al., 2004; Fehr & Gächter, 2002). To determine if a scoping review synthesizing research on revenge in romantic relationships has been carried out, researchers conducted a preliminary search on Google Scholar and found that there are currently no published scoping reviews on this subject. This scoping review aims to fill this gap by systematically mapping the research scope on revenge within romantic relationships, identifying key themes, gaps in the existing literature, and opportunities for future research through a comprehensive examination of available studies.

Reactions to romantic partners wrongdoing

In this study, we aim to see how much an individual's reaction to their partners wronging in the romantic relationship, is associated and even predicted by other variables like Romantic Love Myths and Early Maladaptive Schemas (EMSs).
