  21. Social Exchange Theory Thaibaut and Kelley (1959): A series of exchanges between individuals. Each person tries to maximise their rewards (sexual gratification, companionship, etc) and minimise the costs (abuse, time, energy spent).
  22. Rusbult and Zembrodt: Longitudinal study of 30 relationships over 7 months: Increase or decrease in rewards led to increase or decrease in satisfaction, respectively. Changes in cost has little impact. CL Alt was a strong influence.
  23. CL (formed by past relationships) & CL Alts (formed by current alternative relationships) affect success of relationship.
  24. Could explain why some people stay in abusive relationships (low CL/Alt).
  25. CL Alt intentionally lowered by people in relationships.
  26. Equity Theory Walster et al. (1978): Assumes that people aim to achieve fairness in their relationships and feel distressed if they perceive unfairness. Inequity results in dissatisfaction for both partners.
  27. Clark and Mills (1979) identified two different styles of couples : the ‘communal couple’ and the ‘exchange couple’. Exchange couples kept score of equity, while communal couples not as much, and had a higher regard for each other.
  28. Prins et al. (1999) found a difference in reactions to difference in reactions to inequity between genders: Women more likely to cheat. Theory

  31. Model of Breakdown Rollie & Duck (2002): Relationship Breakdown occurs in 6 stages;
  32. 1. Dissatisfaction, problems with the relationship are noticed - “I can't take this anymore”
  33. 2. Intrapsychic Process, reasoning to leave - “I have revery right to leave”
  34. 3. Dyadic Process, negotiation between partners - “Let's talk it over”
  35. 4. Social Processes, 'going public' - “It's over between me and him”
  36. 5. Grave dressing, coping with break-up - “It's time to move on”
  37. 6. Resurrection, retrospective reflection, maturation - “What I learned, things will be different”
