This study considered the role of perceptions of relationship positivity-specifically, positive communication caring gestures, and recollections of happiest :times discordent clinic (n = 8l) versus nondiscordent community (n=51) couples. Marriage positivity was also examined in three subgroups of clinic couples who differed as to whether the husband was nonaggressive, mildly aggressive, or severely aggressive. As expected, couples in nondistressed community marriages reported more frequent and higher quality, positive communication and lower lasting and more recent happiest memories than did the clinic spouses. However. the discordant clinic husbands evaluated their wives' caring behavior as more negative than their own behavior, while nondiscordant community husbands described their wives' caring behavior as more positive. Measures of relationship positivity also differentiated aggressive from nonaggresive clinic subgroups even when the subgrous were equated for marital adjustment levels.
