“…Students' comfort in discussing sensitive topics such as their sexual preferences can also be increased with 7 shows. For example, students were instructed to imagine rewards and costs in three hypothetical scenarios-dating a compatible (but not attractive) partner, mutually flirting with a very attractive alternative partner (without a lot in common), and chatting with a financially secure alternative partner-are prepared to learn the tenets of social exchange theory (Ribarsky, 2013). Finally, activities designed to illustrate stage models of relationship development through social media (Fox et al, 2013) and music (Minei & Juvan, 2023) are also listed in Table 7.…”

Relationship science is a dynamic, flourishing enterprise, with numerous discoveries and new lines of inquiry evident in recent changes in its textbooks and the teaching activities invented by its instructors. To survey changes and challenges in the teaching of courses that introduce students to relationship science—and to pursue “news instructors can use”—we surveyed 135 instructors of relationships courses regarding their teaching tactics and experiences. Guided by their responses and suggestions for further inquiry, we also examined the changes in textbooks on which they rely and reviewed teaching activities created to assist them with their teaching over the last 20 years. At present, some topics are nearly universal components of relationships courses but idiosyncrasy exists, particularly with regard to new topics—such as coverage of technology, intersectionality, or consensual nonmonogamy—that instructors plan to include in revisions of their courses. Suggestions for both new and experienced instructors are provided.

“…Social exchange theory (SET) explains relationships as a process of negotiated exchanges between parties and suggests that the process of exchanges indicates how individuals will interact (Lioukas & Reuer, 2015). Ribarsky (2013) expands on SET by outlining how an individual assesses the cost and benefits of a relationship to evaluate the value of maintaining the relationship. Zimmer et al (2010, p. 397) explain "Reciprocity involves feelings of obligation within an individual to divulge something in return when the individual becomes the recipient of something similar and is one of the guiding forces in human interaction."…”

Immersion in a strengths-based, study abroad program provides extensive opportunity for leadership growth. Navigating the unknown adds to the challenge students experience during their student-organized activities. The purpose of this qualitative study was to explore how a strengths-based curricula design advanced the leadership competency levels of self-reflection and relationship building during a graduate, short-term study abroad program. The findings show that before and during the program, self-reflection led to thoughtful discussions, which led to valuing differences. Self-reflection contributed to deeper self-awareness of how an individual’s primary strengths and blind spots led to mutual respect. On-going mutual respect enhanced relationships through appreciation for diversity. The strengths-based knowledge aided in acknowledging and valuing differences in one another, which positively impacted relationships.

“…Third, if the time of relationship affects their choice, the students can know how the time affects them in deciding their choice. Fourth, the students' reason of changing decision based upon the point and the time is because of various rewards/costs they perceive over their lifetime (Ribarsky, 2013).…”

This paper is proposed to describe the coherence of concepts in "SHARINGPLUS" with social theories. It is cross sectional research viewing teaching practice implemented by informants of the research. The informants include six lecturers who taught Qualitative Research Methodology at six Programs of Studies at an educational college, called "STKIP PGRI Sumatera Barat", twelve lecturers who supervised theses with qualitative approach, and one of their supervised students. Sampling technique is purposive. The type of data is descriptive taken through interview and they were categorized based on each concept and discussed with the theories of Sociology. Findings show that the concepts "Stimulating", "Patient", "Loving", "Unforgettable", and "Sympathetic" are coherent with social exchange theory, "Appropriateness-based", "Revising", "Illustrating", and "Goal oriented" are coherent with action theory, and "Handled with consensus" and "Negotiating" are coherent with communicative action theories. Thus, the model combines three paradigms (Durhkemian, Maxian, and Weberian, with eleven concepts).
