FIGURE 3.

(A) Depicts predicted relationship satisfaction (vertical axis) as a function of actors’ (x-axis) and partners’ (y-axis) attitudes toward using pornography themselves and the interaction between these variables in Study 2. (B) Does the same for the prediction of sexual satisfaction. In (A), the lack of significant interaction results in a flat prediction surface where partners with dissimilar attitudes toward pornography are not notably lower in relationship satisfaction than partners who are more similar in their attitudes. In (B), sexual satisfaction scores tended to be lowest in cases in which couple members were most dissimilar in their attitudes toward pornography (left- and right-most corners of the plots). According to regions of significance tests, participants’ attitudes toward using pornography themselves were negatively related to their own sexual satisfaction if their partners indicated any degree of dislike of pornography (partners’ attitudes toward pornography use <–0.36) but positively related to their sexual satisfaction when their partners indicated agreement or strong agreement with personally enjoying pornography (partners’ attitudes toward pornography use >0.68).
