Introduction: Investigating the factors influencing flourishing in marital life is of particular importance in reducing family problems, enhancing well-being, and improving couples’ positive functioning. This study aimed to determine the relationship between teamwork skills, empathy, and self-control with couples’ flourishing, considering the mediating role of we-ness.
Method: The statistical population included married men and women aged 25 to 50 in Kashan in 2024 (1403). A sample of 356 participants was selected using convenience sampling, and they responded to the Flourishing Scale (Butler & Kern, 2016), Toronto Empathy Questionnaire (2009), Teamwork Skills Scale (Romero, 2022), Self-Control Scale (Tangney et al., 2004), and We-ness Scale (Topcu-Uzer et al., 2021). Data were analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM) in Amos-24.
Results: SEM results showed that the proposed model had a good fit. Empathy (β = 0.280, p ≤ 0.001), self-control (β = 0.140, p ≤ 0.001), and teamwork (β = 0.269, p ≤ 0.001) directly predicted flourishing. Additionally, we-ness significantly mediated the relationship between empathy (β = 0.128, p ≤ 0.01) and teamwork (β = 0.131, p ≤ 0.01) with flourishing, but the indirect effect of self-control on flourishing through we-ness was not significant.
Conclusion: Based on the findings, counselors and couple therapists can strengthen teamwork skills and empathy to enhance couples’ sense of we-ness and shared identity, thereby supporting their greater flourishing.
