negative affect reciprocity  

Definición

  • Negative affect reciprocity (also called reciprocation of negativity or mutual escalation) refers to the tendency for one person's negative behavior to instigate another's negative behavior. It references a pattern of behavior between two people in relationship to each other, where one person's negative actions, such as criticism or an angry facial expression, are followed by another's similarly valenced actions.
