The book is divided into five parts: (1) Emotions, Imagination, and
Physiology of Relationships, (2) Bases of Relational Scripts, (3)
Relational Escalation and Deescalation, (4) Relationship Scripts in
Context, and (5) Cautions and Recommendations. The authors discuss
the basis of relationship scripts, emotions, imagery, and
physiology of relationships including romance, friendship, work
associates, mentors, and Facebook friends. They argue that people's
expectations for relational development influence their
communication, faith, and commitment in relationships.
Misconstruing sexual or flirtatious intent, for example, is derived
from having different scripts about attraction. They discuss
abusive relationships including characteristics of abusers,
stalking, and verbal and physical aggression. Designed for classes
in psychology, communication, sociology, family studies, and social
work, this book provides a comprehensive overview of how scripts
and communication are used in relationships. Guidelines based on
developing and improving verbal and nonverbal communication
competence are provided. A downloadable teacher's guide is also
available.
