Abstract

It seems a prevailing notion that communication is an essential element of marital adjustment. Moreover, a persistent theme in the literature on marital adjustment is that those who are well-adjusted are not people without problems but are those with skills and resources necessary to solve their problems. The happy couples have the same problems as the unhappy but are better equipped to cope with, or to adapt to, their problems.
