The present study explored the relationships among marital power, marital affection and conflict management patterns. Instead of using couples’ data separately, this study extended the scope of previous research to employ “dyadic relationship” as an unit of analysis to characterize each other’ s interactions. The sample consisted of 769 high school students’ parents in Taiwan, a total of 362 couples’ data were recruited. Data from the analysis showed that different forms of marital affection were the better predictors of conflict management patterns than different forms of marital power. In addition to direct effects between marital affection and conflict management patterns, there were also indirect effects between marital affection and conflict management patterns through spouses’ conflict management patterns. Reciprocity of conflict management patterns was also found in the dyadic Interactions between husband and wife. The influential cultural-specific effects as well as practical applications were discussed.
