Preferred term

commitment, predictors and outcomes  

Definition(s)

  • If people were in relationships only for fun and enjoyment and ended their relationships the moment the joy subsided, there would not be much point in studying commitment; a psychology of relationship satisfaction would suffice. However, relationships are more complicated: People stay together despite short-term and even long-term drops in satisfaction, and sometimes couples break apart although their relationship satisfaction may be the envy of others.
