A significant moderation effect emerged for emotional forgiveness [B(SE) = −0.08 (0.03), t = −3.44, p < 0.001], indicating that the positive link between relationship mindfulness and emotional forgiveness was stronger among individuals with lower, rather than higher, RSC. However, no significant interaction was found for gratitude.\n\n\nConclusion\nThe benefits of relationship mindfulness for emotional forgiveness depend on an individual's RSC levels, functioning as a compensatory resource when relational motivations are less intrinsic.\n\n\nImplications\nThe present research findings underscore the importance of person‐centered implementation of relationship‐focused mindfulness‐based interventions, taking into account individuals' pre‐existing RSC dispositions to optimize their effectiveness in relational dynamics.\n\n"]
