Son Ho SOCO 101 Exchange Theory in Romantic Relationship Exchange theory is the sociological theory that views problem between two parties from the perspective of choices made on the basis of rewards and costs. This social exchange framework is useful for understanding romantic relationships within a relational context, and helps me to have a better understanding about relationships just by focusing on the give-and-take between the two partners.

As stated in an article, “social exchange theory is based on the exchange of rewards and costs to quantify and values of outcomes from different situations for an individual” (Hirschman). The first example of this I would like to discuss is between Sgt. Ryan and Shaniqua Johnson.

I, like many other international students have left family, and friends for the experience.
