Interpersonal Relationships
Interpersonal communication is a conglomeration of many approaches and disciplines coming together to understand relationships. It grew from interactions among scholars from different disciplines and has evolved to become a family of approaches with shared predispositions to understand how people talk and relate to each other orally, nonverbally, and, more recently, electronically. Relationship research is often divided according to the life span…
A biopsychosocial formulation of pain communication
We present a detailed framework for understanding the numerous and complicated interactions among psychological and social determinants of pain through examination of the process of pain communication. The focus is on an improved understanding of immediate dyadic transactions during painful events in the context of broader social phenomena. Fine-grain consideration of social transactions during pain leads to an appreciation of sociobehavioral eve…

How to Do Things With Relationships … and How Relationships Do Things With Us
A community is made up of actively connected personal relationships. These relationships significantly shape how people come to understand their world, gain a sense of the validity and verifiability of their ideas, and become accountable for changes in their attitudes and behaviors. We explore the ways in which everyday communication draws substantially on these relational underpinnings that have been historically underdeveloped in theories of in…

The Everyday Interplay between Family Relationships and Family Members' Health
Hypertext in the Key of G
This article argues that an essential piece in the puzzle of everyday communication is the history that exists among conversational partners. Three types of history are examined as creators of “hypertextual links” among ideas in conversation in a way that allows the flow of conversation to continue. The importance of the relational history among participants in any conversation is stressed as a major influence on the understanding necessary for c…

Under-studied relationships
A full understanding of relationship processes must include consideration of theoretically inconvenient and/or socially disfavored instances as well as those whose value and importance, traditionally, have been acknowledged in research. "Moving off the beaten track," Under-Studied Relationships begins to rectify existing scholarship's tendency to ignore the diverse and emergent forms of relationships that are increasingly evident in modern societ…
Talking Relationships into Being
When the study of relationships focuses on the dyadic level of analysis, it must also take account of the social context in which relationships come into being. That context is strongly bordered by talk and the rhetorical basis of normal (and scientific) discourse. Discourse and other actions typically reproduce the relationship in its own image on successive occasions, though they do not have to do so. The appearance of stability in relationship…

Loneliness and the Evaluation of Relational Events
If loneliness inclines people to a general hostility towards others and to a disparaging style about social interaction, then the style should appear in studies of lonely people interacting with their friends, as well as observing other persons they do not know. We conducted a study with 4 features: it compared (a) lonely and non-lonely persons' evaluation of (b) their own and other people's conversations with friends, using (c) both free evaluat…

Relationships as Unfinished Business
This paper outlines three problems that are foreseen to face us as we enter the 1990s. These are: (1) defining the nature of relationships in the face of discrepancies between the reports of partners and outsiders about the events that occur in the relationship; (2) clarifying the nature of claims that relationships are `processes'; (3) providing a better understanding of the everyday conduct and routines of relationships, particularly the role o…

I Liked You but I Can't Live With You
A study of lapsed and successful relationships is reported in which the following hypotheses were tested and confirmed. First, that friends who had chosen, after 12 months' acquaintance in communal quarters, to live with one another in more personal accommodation would be found to be more similar in personal constructs than they were to those they chose not to live with (p < 0.05). Second, that, of these relationships, the ones that were continui…
When “I Disagree” Means “I Will Like You Longer”
On the Origin of the Specious
In considering the prevailing theoretical representation of personal relationships as interpersonal states (and development of relationships as movement between states or levels of intimacy), we identify four erroneous assumptions of previous approaches These are the tendency to treat relationships as the products of the partners' responses to each other, or of the mixing of partners' attributes, the tendency to assume that people do very little …
