Summary
In the present study, conflict is measured by asking, “To what extent has each of the following been a source of conflict with CP?” Nine of the topics, marked with an asterisk (*), are similar to ones from Rivera Aragón, Díaz- Loving, and Cruz del Castillo (2005). The others are written especially for this study and include topics recently cited as top issues in marital conflict (Whitton et al., 2018).
The possible responses are from 0=NOT AT ALL to 8=EXTREMELY. The overall means and standard deviations are listed Table 7.1 in order from highest to lowest.
