Two studies examined the implications of media depictions of romantic relationships for viewers' satisfaction with their own romantic relationships. Both used adult samples that were heterogeneous in terms of gender and age distributions. In Study 1, 210 participants read short, researcher-created plot summaries, described as either from a romantic movie or television show, either a comedy or drama. They rated their expectations for the central couple and then rated their perceptions of relationship themes in familiar, popular examples of actual movies and television shows. Participants' responses indicated that they perceived romantic movies (vs. fictional television) to depict romance as more idealized, less problem-filled, and less uncertain. Study 2 examined the implications of exposure to these different types of content for individuals' satisfaction with their romantic relationships. Using the framework of the General Learning Model, the study examined both short-term experimental effects and long-term associations with habitual, self-selected exposure. A total of 306 participants were randomly assigned to see one of four 3-minute clips (romantic movie vs. television; comedy vs. drama). Afterwards, they reported their emotions and their satisfaction with their romantic relationship. Additionally, they answered survey questions about their beliefs about romantic relationships and their probable attributions for their partners' behavior. The experiment indicated small but significant, indirect-only effects of random assignment to television versus romantic movie clips on relationship evaluations, via emotional responses. Those who saw romantic movie and comedy (vs. fictional television and drama) clips experienced more positive emotions, and these positive emotions were associated with more positive relationship evaluations. This effect was, in the case of amusement and hope, stronger for individuals who had higher levels of initial relationship satisfaction. Contrary to predictions, the associations between relationship satisfaction and habitual romantic movie and fictional television viewing were remarkably similar. Exposure to both types of media was positively associated with relationship satisfaction both directly and indirectly (via belief in romantic ideals). Additionally, exposure to both types of content was associated with smaller negative indirect paths via uncertainty of relationships and negative attribution bias. Relationship length, but not extent of coviewing, moderated some of these paths.
