A participant (N=237) imagined that he/she was the harmed partner and reported about his/her readiness to forgive. Situational forgiving was examined in the function of reparative actions and the hopelessness of the repliers. We distinguished between expressing solidarity, offering compensation and supporting the self-esteem of the offended party as reparative actions. Situational forgiving was conceptualized as declaration of readiness to forgive and also by the minimum requirement of forgoing reparation (revenge), namely, demand for loosening the relationship, getting compensation and getting support.The manipulated variables mostly had main effects on situational forgiving, where offering compensation and supporting self-esteem made situational forgiving more likely, but expressing solidarity had an inverse effect. Reparative actions from the offender, especially supporting self-esteem, turned out to be particularly important in the eyes of relatively hopeless persons. The practical implications of our results are discussed.
