Emphasis is on the importance of the role of description in the study of social interaction. Methods for the analysis of pattern and sequence, including cross-spectral time-series analysis, are also presented. Comprised of 15 chapters, this book begins with a historical review of several research traditions that have concerned themselves with families and marriages: the sociological tradition; the family therapy or systems tradition; the social learning tradition; and the developmental tradition. Research that points to the potential importance of the observation of consensual decision-making processes is also reviewed. A model of marital interaction called the Structural Model, which can be used to predict changes in marital satisfaction, is described. Subsequent chapters focus on the Couples Interaction Scoring System, an observational system for categorizing marital interaction; modern concepts of the assessment of reliability, particularly the stringent assessment that is necessary for sequential analysis; differences between well-functioning and poorly functioning marriages; couples' interactional styles in terms of communication skill deficits; and the concept of an individual's social competence. This monograph will be of interest to psychologists engaged in research on marriage, as well as sociologists and clinical researchers.

Book excerpt: A majority of research in couple's therapy has a morbid focus on divorce rates. This leads us to identify what not to do in order to prevent a maladaptive relationship and fails to concentrate on what should be done to promote a positive relationship. The present study utilizes the 16 Personality Factor Couple's Counseling Report (16PF CCR) variables of overall Marital Satisfaction, Personality Similarity, and Relationship Adjustment to focus on factors related to adaptive relationships for females. Results demonstrated a positive significant relationship between overall Marital Satisfaction and four of the individual satisfaction areas. There was also a positive significant relationship between overall Marital Satisfaction and the personality variable Emotional Stability. Relationship Adjustment had a positive significant relationship with five personality variables. Overall Marital Satisfaction and Relationship Adjustment were significantly and positively correlated. Finally, it was found that relationship length and relationship status were significantly related to overall Marital Satisfaction. The limitations, implications, and arguments for further research of the current study are discussed.
