Few observers of relationship dynamics would dispute the claim of
interdependence theorists that a defining feature of close
relationships is the extent to which partners influence each
other's thoughts, feelings, or behaviors. However, partners do not
behave simply in response to each other's behavior; both partners
in a given relationship bring themselves - indeed, their selves -
into the relationship as well. Not only are individuals' selves
enormously complex and rich in content, but so too are the
multitude of personality characteristics, including traits, values,
attitudes, motives, and emotions, that contribute to selves'
richness. Gaines, Jr provides a major integration of research on
personality with research on relationship science, and demonstrates
how personality constructs can be readily incorporated into the two
most influential theories of close relationships: attachment theory
and interdependence theory. This study will be of value to scholars
in the fields of close relationships, personality psychology,
communication studies, and family studies.
