Current cross-sectional study assessed relational uncertainty and partner
interference as predictors of relational turbulence in early years of
marriage. Total 108 first time married couples (N =216) with age range
21-45 years (M = 30.71, SD = 5.42), 1 to 10 years of duration of marriage
and minimum education of 12 years were included as research
participants through purposive sampling from Lahore. Relational
Uncertainty Scale (RUS; Knobloch, 2007), Partner Interference Scale
(PIS; Knobloch & Solomon, 2004), Relational Turbulence Scale (RTS;
Knobloch, 2007) were used as assessment measures. Structural Equation
Modelling (SEM) through Analysis of Moment Structures (AMOS) was
used and Common Fate Model (Kenny, 1996; Peugh, DiLillo & Panuzio,
2013) was applied to analyze the study variables at a dyadic level, taking
couples as unit of analysis. Results revealed that relational uncertainty
and partner interference were positive predictors of relational turbulence
in young married couples. The study has implications in marital and
couple counseling.
