The specific goal of the proposed research is to test and elaborate these relationships. Using a multiple regression approach, the proposed research will focus on the relationship between patterns of husband and wife opener scale scores and (a) marital satisfaction, (b) expressed responsiveness as indicated on surreptitiously recorded videotapes, and (c) cognitive attentiveness (the ability to encode and remember what one's partner has said).

Such interventions may aid in helping married couples work through their problems and conflicts together and reduce the emotional stresses associated with such familial conflicts.
