“…A study by Hamamci (Hamamci, ) examined whether the CEs ‘mindreading’ (i.e., predicting another's thoughts), ‘arbitrary inference’ (drawing unwarranted conclusions) and ‘overgeneralization’ (taking one piece of evidence and generalising to other situations) were related to marital conflict. CEs were assessed using the Interpersonal Cognitive Distortions Scale (ICDS; Hamamci & Büyüköztürk, ) and were grouped into three categories: (1) Interpersonal Rejection, (2) Unrealistic Expectations and (3) Interpersonal Misperceptions. Results revealed that having CEs pertaining to unrealistic expectations (‘I need a person around me at all times’) in one's partner was associated with high levels of relationship conflict.…”

Background Cognitive and interpersonal variables are often understood to be related to the etiology and maintenance of major depression. However, few studies have examined the relationship between these two constructs. Aim This study examined the association between cognitive errors (CEs) most commonly endorsed among individuals with major depressive disorder (MDD) and their interpersonal functioning. Method These processes were examined early in psychotherapy and at the end of 20 sessions of cognitive behavioral therapy for depression. Therapy transcripts of 42 clients with MDD were rated for CEs using the Cognitive Error Rating Scale (CERS: Drapeau, Perry & Dunkley, 2008) and for interpersonal behaviors using the Structural Analysis of Social Behavior (SASB: Benjamin & Cushing, 2000). Findings Results of this study revealed significant associations between CEs and interpersonal behaviors early in treatment and at the end of treatment. Implications of these findings are discussed in the context of improving psychotherapy process and outcome.

“…Since individuals' cognitive distortions cause them to perceive the world in an unrealistic way, this affects them negatively when it comes to evaluating their interpersonal relationships (Hamamcı, 2005). Previous studies seem to support this idea, reporting cognitive distortions in relation to self-esteem and loneliness (Turan, 2010), problem-solving skills (Ağır, 2007;Güven, 2005), locus of control (Cash, 1984), attachment styles (Stackert & Bursik, 2003), automatic thought, tendency to conflict (Hamamcı & Büyüköztürk, 2004), and self-compassion (Akın, 2010).…”

In this study, Interpersonal Cognitive Distortions Scale, Resilience Scale III-R, Self-Efficacy Scale, and Sex Role Inventory were administered to the participants. The results indicated that there was a negative correlation between interpersonal cognitive distortions, self-efficacy and psychological resilience. On the other hand, there was a positive correlation between psychological resilience and self-efficacy. Significant differences were found between gender roles and interpersonal cognitive distortions. In line with this, significant differences were found between gender roles and psychological resilience.

“…These theories suggest that the best way to treat marital conflicts is to focus on these beliefs and change them (Islami ). Therefore, researchers have focused on modifying cognitive distortions and changing the methods of solving problems (Leahy , Hamamci & BuyukOzturk, , Islami ).…”

Divorce and conflict are overlapping processes. Previous findings suggest that spirituality-related interventions in mental health nursing may play a significant role in reducing the level and amount of conflict. We examined the effects of hope and forgiveness-focused marital counselling and a combination of the two intervention types on interpersonal cognitive distortions of couples filing for divorce in Isfahan, Iran. We conducted a quasi-experimental study with a pre-test and post-test design. Of 440 couples referred to the Crisis Intervention Center undergoing pre-divorce counselling, 60 were randomly assigned to four groups: hope-focused, forgiveness-focused, mixed and control. Data were gathered using the Interpersonal Cognitive Distortions Scale and analysed using the non-parametric Kruskal-Wallis, Mann-Whitney's U and Wilcoxon tests. Hope- and forgiveness-focused interventions did not have a significant effect on the total number of interpersonal cognitive distortions in comparison with the control group. However, the mixed intervention significantly reduced irrational expectations and interpersonal rejection among couples. Combining hope- and forgiveness-focused interventions can be used to decrease irrational marital beliefs among couples. In addition, rating the level of conflict among couples is important for determining the type of intervention that should be used by mental health nurses (psycho-educational or therapeutic).
