Evaluation: The Model of Breakdown
- Positive
- The model offers some implications for intervening in a
relationship breakdown and ideally 'fixing' it instead. The
model stresses the importance of communication in
relationship breakdown. Pay attention to the things that
people say, the topics that they discuss and the ways
in whicxh they talk about their relationship offer both an
insight into their stage and also suggests appropriate
interventions for that stage.

- Extralmarital affair4s can be seen as being caused by a
lack of skills or stimulation. Boekhout et al, 1999, asked
undergraduate students to rate sexual and emotional
reasons for unfaithfulness. Participants judged sexual
reasons or infidelity, e.g. sexual excitement, boredom,
variety, would be more likely used by men. They thought
women would be more likely to blame emotional reasons,
e.g. lack of attention, commitment and emotional
satisfaction.
