After proving a historical context for understanding the three core constructs explored in this chapter, forgiveness, optimal functioning and close relationships, the chapter provides a conceptual analysis of each construct. A review follows of basic research on forgiveness in close relationships and of efficacy research on forgiveness interventions. Existing research is briefly critiqued befor...

• Affirmed violated values led to increased shame, increasing self-forgiveness. • This process led to increased reconciliation and self-trust. • Belonging and unrelated value affirmation did not show these effects. • This model was shown across two intervention studies with one week follow-up. • The model shows lagged effects of self-forgiveness on restoration. a b s t r a c t a r t i c l e i n...

Objective: This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and schema therapy on forgiveness and fear of intimacy in conflicting couples. Methods and Materials: This quasi-experimental study was conducted using a pre-test-post-test design with a control group. The participants were selected from the conflicting couples who referred to counseling and psy...

Do justice values promote or obstruct forgiveness? This question has received virtually no empirical attention, even though past theorizing suggest two different answers. The literature on forgiveness suggests that justice constitutes a barrier to forgiveness, suggesting that the activation of justice values should decrease the probability of forgiveness. Conversely, the literature on justice a...

Previous work has demonstrated that individuals high (vs. low) in forgiveness are faster to rate their current thoughts and feelings toward their transgressor (i.e., their state forgiveness), but the underlying mechanism is still unclear. The present study examined whether individual differences in rumination about the transgression would mediate the association between forgiveness and response...

In this paper, I begin with a familiar puzzle about forgiveness, namely, how to distinguish forgiveness from excuse on the one hand and “letting go” on the other. After considering three recent and influential accounts of forgiveness that offer answers to this challenge among others, I develop an alternative model of forgiveness as a kind of personal release from debt or obligation. I argue tha...

BACKGROUND People with drug and/or alcohol problems often experience feelings of shame and guilt, which have been associated with poorer recovery. Self-forgiveness has the potential to reduce these negative experiences. METHODS The current study tested theorized mediators (acceptance, conciliatory behavior, empathy) of the relationships between shame and guilt with self-forgiveness. A cross-s...

The circumstance of how sensitive therapeutic success is under imperfect adherence is driven by the property known as forgiveness. To date, no studies have considered variability in the pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic process in conjunction with imperfect adherence patterns in order to develop a comparative criterion to determine the forgiveness of a drug. In this study, we have proposed a crit...
