In the article “What Makes Marriage Work” Dr. John Gottman explores what factors are involved in a successful long lasting marriage, and how to minimize the factors that lead to divorce. Through using real life examples Gottman shows how in general arguments in relationships aren’t inherently bad, but to keep a relationship positive the amount of constructive interactions must greatly outweigh the quantity of destructive or negative interactions. To support this, a key idea of the article is the ratio of positive to negative interactions, or as stated “That magic ratio is 5 to 1. As long as there is five times as much positive feeling and interaction between husband and wife as there is negative, the marriage was likely to be stable over time.”…
What does sense-certainty fail in achieving, and what does this failure mean for epistemology? 2000. December 9th. Sense-certainty is Hegel 's approach to proving that knowledge of the world is not a wholly passive process, he does this through a dialectic from, meaning that the argument moves as a conversation, with hegel presenting an answer to a question, in this case how one can know about the world through consciousness, and then works to show how the answer is wrong in itself, because it holds inconsistencies. This essay will be read as in two parts, first i shall discuss how sense-certainty fails, and then will approach the question of what that means for epistemology.…

Rogerian Argument There are two different perspectives of causes to a successful relationship. The first is communication, trust, support, and honesty; the second perspective is an entitlement, showering of gifts, no fighting, and finding quick solutions to major problems. Although, both perspectives show very understandable reasoning individually, each cause evens the other out. Lauren states that having a sense of entitlement, being showered in gifts, having zero fights, and finding quick solutions to major problems all contribute to a successful relationship.…
Carpi and Egger’s reading “Uncertainty, Error, and Confidence” discusses how there will always be a small portion of error in all scientist’s works. However, there are two different types of error: statistical and systematic and the main difference between the two is that statistical error is random and systematic error can be compensated for during an experiment. Scientists do not report just a single value as a measurement due to these types of errors in experiments, they report a certain range of values, which is a confidence interval. Another key aspect within the reading is in regards to uncertainty. Scientists must accept and realize that there will be errors within the measurements, thus a sense of uncertainty.…
1. Interactions in which infants and their relationship partners together experience delight and other positive emotions, may create (or fail to create) expectations in that infant that people can experience positive feelings together. Some have argued that these expectations may come to act as an "internal working model" for later intimacy relating. Based upon your reading in this chapter (though you may also pull from latter chapters) do you agree or disagree? Explain.…

Like a building putting his faith and trust into the metal beams that support it, partners of a relationship need o put their faith and trust in each other wholeheartedly. Without this trust, the building that is their love will crumble and decimate. And this trust is just one of the keys to a long lasting relationship. After trust a couple requires the feeling of compassion and the ability to compromise with one another.…

5. The uncertainty reduction theory does is what kind of makes us start the process of the social penetration model. The theory suggests that when we see someone, we are want to get to know them and that’s what makes us start a conversation. Which is the begging of the social penetration model. We first notice the person and then we start a conversation with them and then we start to get to know them.…
Lack of communication for longer period will ruin the relationship. Effective communication is the primary activity to maintain healthy and long-lasting relationship (Alberts 202). Sometimes conflict arise in relationship because of feeling that one person does a lot of work than others and does not get appreciated. Equity theory in relationships are motivated by fairness rather than cost and rewards. The meaning of this theory is that both persons should be equally benefitted in any way otherwise conflict arise between their relationship (Alberts 195).…
