DESCRIPTION (Adapted from applicant's abstract): A series of eight proximal marital intervention studies is proposed, based on an empirically grounded theory of marriage (balance theory) derived from the PI's prospective studies on divorce prediction. The studies are to be conducted in a marriage social psychophysiology laboratory in which synchronized, on-line emotional behavior, physiology and self-report of affect are obtained. The eight studies are interventions designed to create proximal changes in marriages, that is, to improve the second of two conflict-resolution marital discussions couples have in the laboratory. Improvement is defined in terms of research on divorce prediction and on the correlates of marital satisfaction. The eight studies are designed to represent the complete eight components of a marital assessment and intervention, and to empirically build theory.; Because only one thing at a time is changed, they can be described as experiments on the proximal effects of specific changes to the three domains of Gottman's core triad balance model (behavior, cognition, and physiology). Interventions are organized around three goals for intervention, which come from parameters of a parsimonious nonlinear dynamic mathematical model. The goals are decreased negative affect reciprocity, increasing the uninfluenced set point, and making the change between influenced and uninfluenced set point more positive. While stated behaviorally so that they can be derived from interaction, they are presented as indices of marital interaction quality in all domains of measurement. The divorce prediction studies also revealed that there are three types of stable couples (volatile, conflict avoiding), and the fourth experiment study is an aptitude-by-treatment interaction study, testing whether specific approaches for teaching empathy with the three types of marriages are more effective than a generic intervention.

描述（改编自申请人的摘要）：一系列八个近端 婚姻干预研究提出，基于经验接地 婚姻理论（平衡理论）源于PI的前景 关于离婚预测的研究 这些研究将在 婚姻社会心理生理学实验室， 情绪行为，生理和自我报告的影响。 的 8项研究是干预措施，旨在创造近端变化， 婚姻，即改善第二种解决两人婚姻冲突的方法 夫妻在实验室里的对话 改善的定义是 关于离婚预测和婚姻关系的研究 满意 这八项研究旨在代表完整的 婚姻评估和干预的八个组成部分， 根据经验建立理论。因为一次只改变一件事， 可以被描述为特定变化的近端效应实验 Gottman的核心三元平衡模型的三个领域（行为， 认知和生理学）。 干预措施围绕三个目标组织 干预，这来自一个吝啬的非线性参数， 动态数学模型 目标是减少负面影响 互惠，增加不受影响的设定点， 受影响和未受影响的设定点之间的关系更加积极。 虽然指出， 从行为上讲，它们可以从相互作用中衍生出来，它们是 在所有领域的婚姻互动质量的指数， 测量. 离婚预测研究还显示， 三种类型的稳定的夫妇（挥发性，避免冲突），第四种 实验研究是一项能力与治疗相互作用的研究， 是否有具体的方法来教授三种类型的同理心， 婚姻比一般的干预更有效。
