Social Psychologist and Author Launches Major Research Program on Couples and Finances
Premier state of the art Research Program on couples and the way they handle finances.
Rockville Centre, NY, June 18, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Social Psychologist and Author Launches Major Research Program for Couples and the way they manage their finances.
Nationally recognized social psychologist and author, Dr. Joan Atwood, President and Clinical Director of the Marriage and Family Therapists of New York, has launched a major research program on couples and finances. This research is a one of kind program.
Money is the last taboo with couples. Communicating about sex is now out in the open, however talking about money is often taboo. This new research project, sponsored by NYMFT, explores couples' relationships with money. One of the most frequent complaints in therapy is couples arguing over finances. One individual will say the other spends too much money or too little. Or the couple does not discuss money at all. This frequently results in one person handling all the finances and the other being cast into a childlike role, having to request funds when s/he needs them. This present research project, the first of its kind, explores couples and their relationship to money. It asks the question, "Is the way that couples handle their finances a metaphor for the way they handle their relationship?" It examines how couples have (or have not) worked out money issues in their relationship. It explores the meaning that couples give to money and if that meaning is related to behavior. It then explores how/if money management is related to marital satisfaction.
This research is given by experienced professionals and all responses are anonymous and confidential.
If they wish, participants will be provided with a summary of the findings when the data analyses are completed.
All responses are confidential and anonymous.
