  • Title: Measuring the differences in pairs' marital forgiveness scores: construct validity and links with relationship satisfaction.
    Author: Bugay A.
    Journal: Psychol Rep; 2014 Apr; 114(2):479-90. PubMed ID: 24897901.
    Abstract:
    This study examined the reliability and validity of a Turkish version for the Marital Dispositional Forgiveness Scale (MDFS). 104 married couples (M age = 36.6 yr., SD = 9.4) living in Turkey completed the Turkish versions of the MDFS and the Relationship Assessment Scale (RAS). Cronbach's coefficients a for negative dimension (wives = .82, husbands = .80) and positive dimension (wives = .80, husbands = .79) were adequate. A correlation between the MDFS and RAS scores indicated significant associations, stronger for the positive dimension than the negative dimension, supporting the external validity of the MDFS.
