There are some big caveats, as we don't think that this network will replicate in other samples. However, absent further research, this is the best we've got, so one can apply these statements with healthy skepticism:
1) Our sample was pretty varied in age and relationship duration
2) However, most of our participants were French heterosexual, monogamous women with relatively high levels of relationship quality
3) The original items were mostly developed in the US

Three statements are central to romantic relationship quality (and should thus suffice to ask about quality if asked about relative agreement):
1) Things are often going well between us
2) My relationship with my partner makes me happy
3) I don't get the love and affection I want from my partner

Part 2:
* We extracted items from our systematic review and queried over 500 French individuals in a romantic relationship.
* The network analysis revealed four dimensions:
1) One's own love and the emotional and physical connection with the partner
2) Shared life philosophies, joint decision-making, and trust
3) Agreement or disagreement in the relationship and the ability to cope with disagreement
4) Perceptions of the partner pertaining to commitment, love, and the feeling of being needed

* There was a general lack of internal validity evidence
* We conducted the search in English and French, so our sample is probably biased, but 15/26 scales were from the US & 6 out of the remaining 11 were also from English-speaking countries.

We have now resubmitted our manuscript on measuring romantic relationship quality. In brief, our conclusions:

Part 1:
* We systematically searched for romantic relationship quality instruments, finding 599 and 26 meeting a definition we provide in the manuscript.
* The mean overlap between instruments was weak (Jaccard Index correlation coefficient = 0.39), meaning that researchers don't agree on how to measure it.

Like last time, it's a mix both of fundamentals, current best practices, advanced topics and rethinking in qualitative and indigenous psychology. From variations of coding, to bayesian quali thinking to negative case analysis and everything in between!

The workshop is perfect for methods reformers, theorists and measurement enthusiasts! Here’s a sweet testimonial from Leo Huang.

The workshop is also updated with lessons learned from the ongoing ManyQuali project!

Some people were very interested in attending the last workshop but the January dates didn’t work for them. Given the resurgence of interest (whether curious or critical) in Qualitative psych -- we’re rehosting the workshop on April 26, 27 and 28!
