    <dcterms:abstract>Avoidance goals heighten the salience of negative social experiences, and in intimate relationships such&#xD;
an orientation may contribute to communication difficulties and the perpetuation of avoidance. We&#xD;
therefore hypothesized that individuals with stronger avoidance goals would be particularly prone to&#xD;
engage in escalating levels of negative communication with their intimate partner, and we tested this&#xD;
prediction by conducting sequential analyses on videotaped observational data (28,470 observations)&#xD;
collected from 365 heterosexual couples engaging in a relationship-related conflict. While less&#xD;
avoidance-oriented spouses showed a decline in their likelihood of negative communication over the&#xD;
course of the 8-min conflict discussion, the likelihood that more avoidance-oriented spouses would&#xD;
display negative communication behaviors remained at a high level. The likelihood of negative communication&#xD;
even increased when avoidance-oriented spouses were confronted with negative communication&#xD;
behavior of their partners. The effects of avoidance orientation were independent of relationship&#xD;
satisfaction and neuroticism. These findings demonstrate that avoidance goals underlie individuals’&#xD;
heightened reactivity to the partner’s negative behavior, while also clarifying 1 possible reason why some&#xD;
individuals engage in communication behaviors that may prove maladaptive to their relationship.</dcterms:abstract>
