“…In particular, it remains unclear exactly when automatic partner attitudes exert their effects. In fact, although they eventually predict relationship processes and outcomes over time as described previously, automatic partner attitudes do not appear to be correlated with subjective relationship evaluations reported concurrently (Banse et al, 2013; Hicks et al, 2016, 2018; LeBel & Campbell, 2013; McNulty et al, 2013; Scinta & Gable, 2007). We argue that addressing this mystery can help relationship scientists understand how relationship satisfaction declines over time despite people’s powerful and seemingly effective motivations to protect it.…”

“…Finally, in a direct test of the role of motivated processes in these evaluations, Hicks et al (2018) demonstrated that the frequency of orgasm during sex was associated with automatic partner attitudes, whereas sexual frequency was associated only with deliberate reports of relationship satisfaction for participants who believed frequent sex was important for relationship health. Such evidence supports the idea that people’s automatic partner evaluations’ may track rewarding and costly experiences related to their partners in a way that is less susceptible to their motivations and preexisting beliefs.…”

“…Similarly, among newlywed couples, frequency of sex-an activity that is likely to contribute to partnerpositive associations-as reported by either one or both relationship partners, was positively associated with increased automatic partner attitudes over the course of the relationship according to an evaluative priming task (Hicks et al, 2016). As a comparison, the same association involving deliberate attitudes was only significant for people perceiving such information as a valid basis to update their self-reported judgments-those who believed that sex is important for relationship quality (Hicks et al, 2018).…”
