Preferred term

relational cohesion  

Definition(s)

  • Relational cohesion is a testable theory that explains how a network of social exchange produces more cohesion and commitment in some relations than in others. Cohesion and commitment develop in particular relations because exchanging valued outcomes with others produces emotions—that is, individuals feel good or feel bad as a result. [Source: Encyclopedia of Social Theory; Relational Cohesion]
