There were 1241 respondents who had a romantic relationship. After adjusting for the covariates, findings suggested that greater perceived partner responsiveness and institutional trust led respondents to report better subjective health. The positive link between perceived partner responsiveness and subjective health was more pronounced among the respondents reporting a lower level of institutional trust. Such an interaction could be an indicator pointing out the compensatory role of close relationship dynamics. Given that finding, public health authorities and practitioners could be encouraged to be aware of the adaptive function of social ties on health and focus on maintaining the strength of intimate social ties and building trust between authority gradients. This suggestion could especially be adaptive not only during "normal" times but also during post-disaster circumstances (e.g., COVID-19).eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPerceived partner responsivenessBonding social capitalInstitutional trustLinking social capitalSubjective healthTurkeyCOVID-19Article192202159WOS:00110497930000110.1002/ijop.130882-s2.0-85176423467Q3Q137964639
