Sanjeevini Dixit

Abstract: The capacity to control emotion is important for human adaptation especially in close relationships. Also, according to the previous theories human behaviour is automatically driven by selfish impulses and the willingness to put ones own needs ahead of others. The present research tested the hypothesis that, emotional regulation and self control or the willingness to sacrifice has any positive relationship to the experiences in close relationships. The sample consisted of 100 participants and the findings suggested that there is a positive correlation between the variables.
