Download or read book The Relationship Between Dominance and Discussion Topics in Couples written by Courtney L. Behrens and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between dominance and discussion topics in romantic couple relationships. Specifically, the author wanted to determine if who generated the topic of discussion influenced the frequency of domineering and dominant behaviors. To date, no study has specifically studied the relationship between dominance and discussion topics in couples. The couples participated in two ten-minute discussions of which each of their chosen topics was the focus of discussion. The data was videotaped, transcribed, and then coded using the Family Relational Communication Control Coding System in order to measure for domineeringness and dominance. Couples were also categorized, based on their level of dominance, as egalitarian, wife-dominant, or husband-dominant. Self-report data of marital satisfaction using the Dyadic Adjustment Scale was also used in order to assess the relationship between couple type and marital satisfaction. Results for the relationship between marital satisfaction and couple type were not significant and were not consistent with past research. Neither egalitarian nor non-egalitarian couples were found to have a significant relationship with either low or high marital satisfaction. Overall, the author found significant relationships between domineeringness and who generates the topic of discussion as well as between dominance and who generates the topic of discussion. Furthermore, women were found to be more domineering and dominant across both the man and woman's topic; however, further analyses are needed in order to support this trend.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

You appreciate the freedom that comes from structure, surrender, and personal discipline. L-Type You have natural dominant traits and seem comfortable and confident when using them. You place an importance on follow-through and follow-up from your partner. You step into your natural abilities to lead, guide, protect and direct. It's important to you that you earn trust from your partner. You will not ask for it or demand it up front.

Download or read book Dominance and Monopolization written by Rosa Greaves and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 625 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Antitrust and competition law is a fast moving area of law and the subject of extensive academic research. The aim of this volume is to select articles as tools for understanding how antitrust and competition law is applied to unilateral conduct which is harmful to the consumer and to the competitiveness of the market. The articles examine the meaning of dominance and monopolisation and show that although legal and economic rules have been developed to establish whether undertakings hold such strong market positions, it is often difficult to determine with certainty that the undertaking being investigated meets the threshold. The various debates on pricing and non-pricing conduct are also represented as are the conflicts that have arisen regarding the exercise of intellectual property rights by powerful undertakings, particularly in the context of the new economies. The volume includes scholarly articles published on both sides of the Atlantic and enables a greater understanding of the application of antitrust and competition law from the point of view of economics and politics.
Download or read book The Service Dominant Logic of Marketing written by Robert F. Lusch and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-12-18 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Expanding on the editors' award-winning article "Evolving to a New Dominant Logic for Marketing," this book presents a challenging new paradigm for the marketing discipline. This new paradigm is service-oriented, customer-oriented, relationship-focused, and knowledge-based, and places marketing, once viewed as a support function, central to overall business strategy. Service-dominant logic defines service as the application of competencies for the benefit of another entity and sees mutual service provision, rather than the exchange of goods, as the proper subject of marketing. It moves the orientation of marketing from a "market to" philosophy where customers are promoted to, targeted, and captured, to a "market with" philosophy where the customer and supply chain partners are collaborators in the entire marketing process. The editors elaborate on this model through an historical analysis, clarification, and extension of service-dominant logic, and distinguished marketing thinkers then provide further insight and commentary. The result is a more comprehensive and inclusive marketing theory that will challenge both current thinking and marketing practice.
