The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of self-compassion on couples’ dyadic conflict resolution strategies. This study involved multivariate correlation and an actor-partner interdependence model. In 2020, the statistical population consisted of all Tehran-dwelling couples. The research sample consisted of 167 couples (334 individuals) selected using the available sampling method. Rahim Organizational Conflict Inventory-II (ROCI-II) and Self-Compassion Scale (SCS) were utilized. The collected data were initially analyzed using the SPSS-23 software. Then, in order to study the dyadic effects of couples’ characteristics, the actor-partner interdependence model and the R programming language were utilized. The actor effect of the first model demonstrated that a man’s self-compassion can directly and significantly predict his constructive conflict resolution manner, whereas this is not the case for women. In addition, due to the actor effect of the second model, self-compassion was unable to predict the couples’ manner of avoiding conflict resolution. Self-compassion can significantly predict the dominant conflict resolution style of couples, as demonstrated by the third model's actor effect. By promoting self-compassion skills in even one spouse, it is likely that couples’ conflict resolution will be more productive and their relationship will improve, as suggested by these encouraging results.

One of the individual factors that seems to influence a person's conflict behavior in a relationship is the importance of one's own desires versus the importance of one's spouse's desires (Fincham & Beach 12, 2010), which is closely related to the psychological concept of self-compassion 13.
Therefore, the present research was conducted with the aim of examining the role of marital self-compassion in the conflict resolution styles of both spouses using factor-partner interdependent modeling.
Figure 1 shows the structural relationship model regarding the effect of men's self-compassion on their own constructive conflict resolution styles and their spouse's, in which the path coefficients of latent variables are with each other in women and men, and latent variables with their indicators (P, β) are displayed in the form of the woman's actor effect (a1), the woman's partner effect (p1), the man's actor effect (a2), the man's partner effect (p2), the coefficient of determination (r2), and the standard error (E).
Regarding the second model, the results showed that self-compassion does not predict couples' use of avoidance conflict resolution style during the relationship.
Based on the findings of this research, the factor effects in women and men showed that self-compassion of each spouse significantly and inversely predicted their use of the dominance conflict resolution style during the relationship.
