Dependencia emocional en parejas con relaciones afectivas como noviazgo, unión libre y matrimonio.

Abstract

This monograph sought to identify emotional dependence in couples in affective relationships such as dating, free union or marriage. In order to achieve this goal, an exploratory quantitative methodology was used, with a sample of 9 couples from the Ospina Pérez neighborhood, with ages between 20 and 55 years old. The sample was selected through the non-probabilisticintentional method, choosing it with specific criteria. Likewise, the instrument used was the Emotional Dependence Questionnaire constructed and validated in Colombia. With the study, it was identified that there is no notable difference between the selected groups in relation to emotional dependence; however, certain distinctive characteristics can be established among the evaluated factors, finding a higher incidence in married couples. Based on this, a fan page was created in order to contribute to the quality of couple relationships.
