Relationship status-mental health concerns association: An examination of attachment and attention
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Past studies have revealed an advantage of marriage over singlehood, but the role of relationship status in mental health concerns needs further investigation. This paper examined the connection between relationship status and mental health concerns and explored the cognitive and affective mechanisms explaining it, using a multi-method approach. Study 1 was an online study with equal groups of married ( n = 125) or single individuals ( n = 125), whereas Study 2 was a probabilistic laboratory study with two natural groups of individuals that were either single ( n = 21) or in a relationship ( n = 89). Path analyses showed that attachment avoidance and attentional control could act as mediators explaining the role of relationship status in mental health concerns. We showed that being in a relationship or being married was associated with better mental health and that the benefits of marriage and couple life on mental health were explained by attachment and attention. Des études antérieures ont révélé un avantage du mariage par rapport au célibat, mais le rôle du statut relationnel dans les problèmes de santé mentale doit être étudié davantage. Ainsi, cet article examine le lien entre le statut relationnel et les problèmes de santé mentale et explore les mécanismes cognitifs et affectifs qui l’expliquent, en utilisant une approche multiméthodes. L’Étude 1 est une étude en ligne avec des groupes égaux de personnes mariées ( n = 125) ou célibataires ( n = 125), tandis que l’Étude 2 est une étude probabiliste en laboratoire avec deux groupes naturels de personnes célibataires ( n = 21) ou en couple ( n = 89). Les analyses acheminatoires montrent que l’évitement de l’attachement et le contrôle attentionnel agissent comme variables médiatrices expliquant le rôle du statut relationnel dans les problèmes de santé mentale. Cet article révèle que le fait d’être en couple ou d’être marié est associé à une meilleure santé mentale et que les bénéfices du mariage et de la vie de couple sur la santé mentale sont expliqués par l’attachement et l’attention.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
