Interpersonal Relationships and the Self-Concept
This volume provides an overview of the theoretical and empirical work on relationship-induced self-concept change that has occurred over the last 10-15 years. The chapters in this volume discuss the foundations of relationship self-change, how and when it occurs, how it influences relationship decisions and behavior, and how it informs and modifies subsequent knowledge structures, all examined over the course of the relationship cycle (i.e., initiation, maintenance, and dissolution).

The Self in Social Judgment
The volume begins with a historical overview of the self in social judgment and outlines the major issues. Subsequent chapters, all written by leading experts in their respective areas, identify and elaborate four major themes regarding the self in social judgment: · the role of the self as an information source for evaluating others, or what has been called 'social projection' · the assumption of personal superiority as reflected in the pervasive tendency for people to view their characteristics more favorably than those of others · the role of the self as a comparison standard from or toward which other people's behaviors and attributes are assimilated or contrasted · the relative weight people place on the individual and collective selves in defining their attributes and comparing them to those of other people
12 Ignored Truths When Picking a Life Partner
Why Rush Into Marriage? If love and attraction are all you need for a happy and long-lasting marriage, why do so many great relationships end in a breakup? Why is cohabitation becoming more common while marriages are becoming less common? In the past, our ancestors usually didn't get married because they loved each other. Instead, they did it to join families and raise children together. Their marriages were usually set up by their parents, and they would start with a betrothal. They lacked the same benefits, rights, and systems that modern spouses in many countries enjoy. Can we say that the relationships between modern couples are better than those of our ancestors, given that mutual love is the main reason people get married today? This book talks about the truths most would-be couples ignore before they decide on their own to get married. Once their marriage becomes miserable, they start to realize that they made mistakes in their choice of partner.
