This book details years of research involving questionnaires and
observations of married couples in pursuit of the determinants of
both marital happiness and divorce. It will be of interest to
family and clinical psychologists and methodologists.
Stereotypically, science and emotion are diametric opposites: one
is cold and unfeeling, the other soft and nebulous; one is based on
proven facts while the other is based on inexplicable feelings and
never the twain shall meet, until now.
This book describes research on the emotional communication between
parents and children and its effect on the children's emotional
development. Inspired by the work, and dedicated to the memory of
Dr. Haim Ginott, it presents the results of initial exploratory
work with meta-emotion--feelings about feelings. The initial study
of meta-emotion generated some theory and made it possible to
propose a research agenda. Clearly replication is necessary, and
experiments are needed to test the path analytic models which have
been developed from the authors' correlational data. The authors
hope that other researchers will find these ideas interesting and
stimulating, and will inspire investigation in this exciting new
area of a family's emotional life.

Continuity and change have been major concerns of the social and
behavioral sciences -- in the study of human development and in the
study of processes that unfold in various ways across time. There
has been a veritable explosion of techniques for studying change
over time which have fundamentally changed how we need to think of
and study change. Unfortunately, many of the old precepts and
beliefs are still among us.

Sequential Analysis aims to detect the recurring sequential patterns in a stream of coding categories describing social interaction. These techniques can be employed to study the repertoires of individuals and of dyads and groups. This book is a sequel to Bakeman and Gottman's Observing Interaction: An Introduction to Sequential Analysis (CUP, 1986). It constitutes the first integrated presentation of the major methods of sequential analysis. Gottman and Roy review historical approaches such as stationarity, order, homogeneity, pooling data across subjects, and autocorrelation in inferring cross-correlation. The integrated application of techniques is also discussed. Addressing the behavioral scientist, the authors provide many examples and illustrate everyday computations. They also offer guides to existing computer programs.

Esther Williams and John Gottman describe a complete set of programs they have written in Fortran IV to enable even beginners to use all the techniques presented in John Gottman's Time-Series Analysis: A Comprehensive Introduction for Social Scientists. There are three packages, available on IBM card source desks from the authors, for (1) time and frequency domain model fitting, including detecting cycles, (2) forecasting and interrupted time-series analysis, and (3) multivariate time-series analysis, in both time and frequency domains. The packages have been tested for portability. Modification specific computers are noted in the guide.
