Both self-forgiveness and other-forgiveness are associated with greater relationship satisfaction in romantic relationships. The present research examines whether self-forgiveness for a transgression against the partner leads to greater forgiveness of a subsequent partner transgression, and whether this, in turn, predicts greater relationship satisfaction. Study 1 showed that self-forgiveness p...

Transgression of the characteristic classes taking values in the differential forms is a reach source of the interesting algebraic objects. The examples include Chern-Simons and Bott-Chern forms which are given by the transgression of the Chern character form. Chern-Simons forms are defined for a vector bundle over an arbitrary real manifold and are connected with the representation of combinat...

We study how institutional design influences moral transgression. People are heterogeneous in their feelings of guilt and can share guilt with others. Institutions determine the number of supporters necessary for immoral outcomes to occur. With more supporters required, every supporter can share guilt more easily. This facilitates becoming a supporter. Conversely, an institution requiring more ...
