The persistence of a chronic conflict in couple's relationship is related to an increased probability of gender violence as well to negative consequences on sexual and mental health. In this study we have analyzed the relationship among psychosocial factors and the presence of couple’s conflict, and the association between this conflict and the appearance of sexual and mental disorders and/or dysfunctions. For this purpose a sample of 39 heterosexual couples with unsatisfactory couple relationships had been studied. The results revealed that the strategies to cope with conflicts are deficitaires to both sexes. Regarding sexual behavior, women but no men showed dysfunctions in all the phases of the sexual life. As for as the mental health, all the subjects with clinical depressive symptoms, and most of those with low self-esteem and high anxiety-state, were included in the group who reported couple conflict.
La persistencia de un conflicto crónico en la relación de pareja incide directamente en la posibilidad de que se produzcan conductas de violencia de género, así como en la aparición de consecuencias negativas sobre la salud sexual y mental de los miembros de la pareja. En este estudio hemos analizado, con una muestra de 39 parejas heterosexuales que presentaban relaciones insatisfactorias, la asociación entre variables psicosociales y presencia del conflicto, así como la relación entre dicho conflicto y la manifestación de trastornos sexuales y mentales. Los resultados revelan que las estrategias para solucionar conflictos son deficitarias en ambos sexos. Las mujeres manifiestan, a diferencia de los hombres, trastornos en todas las fases de la respuesta sexual. Respecto a la salud mental, todas las personas que manifiestan depresión y la mayoría de las que manifiestan baja autoestima y alto estado de ansiedad, pertenecen al grupo con conflicto de pareja.
