Predicting Marital Happiness and Stability from Newlywed Interactions.
Gottman, John M.; Coan, James; Carrere, Sybil; Swanson, Catherine
Journal of Marriage and the Family, v60 n1 p5-22 Feb 1998
Marital interaction processes that are predictive of divorce or marital stability and processes that discriminate between happily and unhappily married stable couples are explored (N=130). Seven types of process models are examined, and results are discussed. Divorce and stability were predicted with 83% accuracy, and satisfaction with 80% accuracy. (Author/EMK)
