Özet

Objective: A review of the literature reveals that while forgiveness, the importance attached to negative experiences to be forgiven, and repetitive thinking are associated with marital adjustment, the role of variables regarding close relationships has so far received little attention from researchers. As the marital relationship, one of the most important interpersonal relations, correlates to mental health, this study aims to examine jointly the predictive power of relevant variables for psychological symptoms and marital adjustment and additionally to investigate possible gender differences in terms of these research variables.
