Abstract in brief

  • Expressing gratitude to a partner can improve how strong and connected you feel in the relationship, as shown in different studies.
  • The research found that gratitude not only correlates with feeling more communal strength but can also lead to increased perceptions of closeness over time.
  • In an experiment, people who directly expressed gratitude to friends felt a greater sense of communal strength than those who only thought about being grateful or had positive interactions, highlighting the positive impact of gratitude actions.]
