Note. N = 159 couples. Paternal data are below the diagonal. Maternal data are above the diagonal. RQI objective ratings of emotional intimacy, conflict management, and sexual quality between partners of a dyad were combined to create dyadic scores; Received support and respect are separate Maternal and Paternal scores. Correlations between self-compassion subscales and intimate relationship quality (Aim 1) are shaded.
