Sažetak
In adolescent and adult age the need for affection and belongingness is achieved mostly through the romantic relationship (Fletcher, 2002). Although aspects of romantic relations are well explored, negative sides like manipulative behaviour, are scientifically unattended. Personal
characteristics, like emotional intelligence and attachment can be theoretically linked to aspects of manipulative behaviour. Thus, the aim of this research was to examine these relations. Research was conducted on a sample of 53 romantic heterosexual couples, a total of 106 participants (average age for women 26 years, for men 28 years). We used a modified version of Tactics of manipulation (Buss, 1992), Emotional Competence Questionnaire (Takšić, 2002), a modified version of Emotional manipulation scale (Austin et al., 2007) and Modified Experiences in Close Relationships Inventory (Kamenov i Jelić, 2003). The results show that attachment anxiety is positively correlated to indirect tactics for humouring. Partners who are more diverse in emotional intelligence and attachment anxiety are also more diverse in mutual tendency to use indirect tactics for humouring, in comparison to partners who are more alike in emotional intelligence and anxiety. The difference in self-reports about tactics of manipulation and partner’s
ratings weren’t found, neither in couples who are more alike in emotional intelligence nor in couples who are less alike in emotional intelligence.
