Persistent conflicts and arguments are the leading causes of divorce in Indonesia. These disputes often result from poor communication, which can be linked to adverse childhood experiences (ACE). One effective approach to mitigate these impacts and enhance relationship satisfaction is through dyadic coping. This study aims to examine the mediating role of dyadic coping in the relationship between ACE and relationship satisfaction. The participants were 260 married young adults which consist of 207 women and 57 men residing in Jabodetabek. The measurement tools used were the Adverse Childhood Experience-Questionnaire, Dyadic Coping Inventory, and Relationship Assessment Scale. The results found that dyadic coping can partially mediate the negative impact of ACE on relationship satisfaction among married couples. Dyadic coping dimensions such as supportive DC, negative DC, and common DC has been found significant and can also partially mediate the relationship between ACE and relationship satisfaction.
