Making Marriage Work | Dr. John Gottman
It is a 47 minute video featuring John Gottman talking about the research he and his associates conduct with married people to help identify why and how some couples stay together and other couples do not.
For this assignment, you will need to provide a minimum two page paper summarizing the content of the video. Specifically you will need to explain the differences between the Masters and the Disasters. You will need to reflect on what, according to Gottman and his decades of research, makes relationships work. What allows Gottman to predict divorce or stability with high accuracy?
Your reflection should cover your own reaction to this video and and the research it describes. If you have some personal examples to share, or can explain how you might apply this to your own relationship, you are encouraged to do so.
