New research from Cornell University indicates that receiving supportive texts from a romantic partner, even briefly, can greatly improve emotional well-being in stressful situations, such as exams. Undergraduate participants reported feeling more positive and less negative when they received encouraging messages from their partners. The study emphasizes the importance of maintaining emotional connections with loved ones, suggesting that merely knowing a partner is supportive can provide significant emotional benefits even in their absence.
Just knowing the person is there, even when they're not physically present, can produce benefits and have these ripple effects in our lives.
Receiving supportive texts from partners helps students cope with exam stress, contributing to positive emotions and lowering negative feelings.
