We still cannot robustly predict the formation and dissolution of any given romantic relationship. Furthermore, the researchers who study attraction and initial dating tend to have little overlap with those who study the maintenance of established relationships, leaving many unanswered questions about trajectories of relationships over time. In this talk, Amie Gordon will discuss how relationship science can leverage modern technology to gather large-scale data on the formation, maintenance, and dissolution of romantic relationships. One project leverages dating apps\u2014the most common way for couples to meet today\u2014to gain new insights into relationship formation. In collaboration with Elizabeth Bruch, a U-M sociologist, her lab has spent the past two years developing\u00a0Revel, a dating app designed for science, not profit. A second project uses intensive longitudinal methods to track moment-to-moment relationship experiences with the goal of better understanding the dynamic patterns of change in relationship quality and stability over time. This talk showcases how technological advances provide creative opportunities to track the full lifecycle of relationships at an unprecedented scale and shed new light on the dynamics of relationships from beginning to end.\r\n\r\nAmie M. Gordon is an associate professor of social psychology at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor where she directs the Well-being, Health, and Interpersonal Relationships Lab (WHIRLab). Her research uses a multimethod approach to understand the affective, social cognitive, and biological factors that shape our closest relationships. She is particularly interested in how relationship partners influence each other in the moment and over time. A main goal of her research is to better understand how people can maintain high-quality relationships. Her research is driven by the belief that our interpersonal relationships underscore every aspect of our lives, influencing the health and well-being of individuals, families, groups, and organizations. Dr. Gordon received her PhD in Social-Personality Psychology from UC Berkeley and her BA in Psychology from UCLA. Prior to beginning her position at the University of Michigan, she completed postdoctoral fellowships at UC Berkeley and UCSF, as well as a research scientist position at UCSF.\r\n\r\n\r\nAbout the Series:\r\n\r\nHumans are social animals and from the earliest days of life, are dependent on the quality of social relationships with significant others: family, kin, friends, and a growing social network of online acquaintances. But, how do we conduct research and come to understand the social processes transpiring in these significant social connections with others? What are the consequences for individual development and mental health outcomes of having close intimate relationships in one\u2019s life? There is also a darker side to some relationships in the form of violence, aggression, and conflict. How do we study these processes? Social media and artificial intelligence have opened up new ways of thinking about \u201cwhat is a social relationship?\u201d and how many of these \u201cfriends\u201d can one truly have.\r\n\r\nThe speakers for this series will focus on different types of social relationships, spanning family and parent-child relationships, friendships, peer networks, romantic relationships, attachment relationships, and the use of online media to maintain social connections. Although several speakers are senior scholars with extensive research backgrounds in the field, many are junior scholars who are traversing new paths into the science of social relationships.

Friend connections\u00a0have positive impacts on health, happiness, and economic mobility. Friends can also buffer people against the high individual and societal costs of loneliness. But, in part because social psychology, relationship science, and evolutionary behavioral work have prioritized romantic and kin relationships, we know less about how friendship works among adults. My research aims to redress this gap by uncovering the design of friendship psychology. I begin from the premise that having friends\u2014and enjoying the related benefits\u2014requires people to solve multiple, likely recurrent challenges (e.g., finding, making, keeping friends). I also introduce the \u2018embedded dyad framework\u2019, which improves our ability to describe what these challenges look like: Just as better describing the shape of a lock allows us to generate better-informed predictions about the design of its key, better describing the shapes of friendship challenges allows us to generate better-informed predictions about how people solve them\u2014or, really, the cognitive design of the tools that people use to solve them. In particular, this framework increases our descriptive power by providing a more ecologically-valid view of the social relationship landscape\u2014one emphasizing that dyads, the typical focus of relationships work, exist embedded in wider, often densely interconnected networks. Therein, one\u2019s dyadic partners\u2014here, friends\u2014frequently interact with other people, and these friend-other interactions can influence one\u2019s friends, friendships, and outcomes. Thus, friendship challenges are likely to possess not only well-studied dyadic components (e.g., getting friends to like us), but also comparatively overlooked supra-dyadic ones (e.g., getting friends to like us\u00a0more than they like\u00a0their other friends). I discuss how this knowledge affects three key friendship challenges: finding, making, and maintaining friends, and I introduce implications for understanding the growth of friendlessness.\u00a0\r\n\r\nAbout the series:\r\n\r\nHumans are social animals and from the earliest days of life, are dependent on the quality of social relationships with significant others: family, kin, friends, and a growing social network of online acquaintances.

Typically, greater co-rumination is associated with more intrapersonal costs (e.g., negative affect) and interpersonal benefits (e.g., closeness), indicative of what is known as the \u201ctrade-off hypothesis.\u201d While research establishing the costs and benefits associated with co-rumination has been formative, our understanding of co-rumination can be enhanced by embracing its dyadic and social nature. Through a social psychological lens, our team paves a way forward by offering a new theoretical conceptualization with which to view co-rumination that emphasizes the need to explicitly examine the dyadic and social nature of co-rumination and to reconsider what are \u201ccosts\u201d and \u201cbenefits\u201d of co-rumination based on the social context in which it is embedded. I will review how our research team got to these theoretical points by discussing findings from 7 studies and 1,511 individuals. After, I will outline our future directions using this theoretical reconceptualization of co-rumination. We hope this work may help us to better understand difficult and upsetting conversations with close others, ultimately improving recommendations for how individuals seek and provide support through challenging times.\r\n\r\nAbout the Series:\r\n\r\nHumans are social animals and from the earliest days of life, are dependent on the quality of social relationships with significant others: family, kin, friends, and a growing social network of online acquaintances.

Chris Fraley of the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign joins the RCGD Fall Seminar Series on the Science of Social Relationships.\r\n\r\nThere are vast individual differences in the ways in which people relate to significant others in their lives. Some people, for example, are relatively secure in their relationships: They are comfortable opening up to others and having others depend on them. Other people, in contrast, are insecure: They are uncomfortable depending on others and worry that others will not be available when needed. Social and personality psychologists refer to these kinds of individual differences as \"attachment styles.\" In this talk R. Chris Fraley will review research on why some people are more secure than others. This talk convers five conclusions that have emerged from research over the past two decades-- with discussion of some of the challenges and opportunities involved in changing people's attachment styles.\r\n\r\nR. Chris Fraley is a Professor at the University of Illinois's Department of Psychology. He received his PhD from the University of California, Davis in 1999 in Social-Personality Psychology. In 2007 he received the American Psychological Association's Distinguished Scientific Award for Early Career Contribution to Psychology in the area of Individual Differences. In 2025 he received the Carol and Ed Diener Mid-Career Award from the Society for Personality and Social Psychology. He has served as an Associate Editor at the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology and Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin.\r\n\r\nChris's research involves the study of attachment processes in close relationships, personality dynamics and development, and research methods (with an emphasis on open science and dynamic modeling). The majority of his research is focused on understanding why some people are more secure than others in their close relationships, the implications of attachment (in)security for psychological well-being and relationship functioning, and how attachment patterns change over time.\r\n\r\nAbout the series:\r\n\r\nHumans are social animals and from the earliest days of life, are dependent on the quality of social relationships with significant others: family, kin, friends, and a growing social network of online acquaintances. But, how do we conduct research and come to understand the social processes transpiring in these significant social connections with others? What are the consequences for individual development and mental health outcomes of having close intimate relationships in one\u2019s life? There is also a darker side to some relationships in the form of violence, aggression, and conflict. How do we study these processes? Social media and artificial intelligence have opened up new ways of thinking about \u201cwhat is a social relationship?\u201d and how many of these \u201cfriends\u201d can one truly have. \r\n\r\nThe speakers for this series will focus on different types of social relationships, spanning family and parent-child relationships, friendships, peer networks, romantic relationships, attachment relationships, and the use of online media to maintain social connections.

The result of this is a lack of precision or specificity in determinants and sequelae. As a field, we have still not successfully addressed limitations identified 20 years ago by Collins (2005): \u201cPerhaps most important for future research, the present framework is a timely reminder of the importance of moving beyond global associations toward divergent predictions, thus avoiding the frequent, but only somewhat informative, conclusion that good things go together and bad things go together (p. 144).\u201d Behavioral systems models can address this gap by more precisely identifying parental socialization goals and the behavioral strategies for achieving those goals within specific child-rearing contexts.\u00a0 This talk will present how \u201cform (what it looks like)\u201d and \u201cfunction (what it is designed to do)\u201d in behavioral systems conceptualizations of caregiving can provide greater specificity in parenting behaviors with children. Moreover, the talk will discuss observational approaches to assessing different caregiving domains, mothers' and fathers' caregiving, and the pitfalls and promises of this approach.\r\n\r\nAbout the series:\r\n\r\nHumans are social animals and from the earliest days of life, are dependent on the quality of social relationships with significant others: family, kin, friends, and a growing social network of online acquaintances.

These racial inequities in relationship outcomes have been attributed, in part, to racism which \u201cdefines, structures, reinforces, and constrains romantic relationships\u201d (Landor & McNeil Smith, 2023, p. 7). The Integrative Model for the Study of Stress in Black Families (Murry et al., 2018) frames racism and the inequities that it produces as stressors for Black family relationships. Importantly, romantic relationships can be a source of strength and resilience for Black Americans as they navigate shared experiences of racism-related stress, including persistent discrepancies in access to resources that undergird racial inequities, together. Black families\u2019 existence and historical persistence in the face of racism suggests that individuals have consciously and unconsciously adapted behaviors and cognitions that can mitigate the adverse effects of racism. Importantly, racism and racism-related stress is multidimensional its effects can be complicated by other intersecting oppressions (e.g., cis-sexism, heterosexism, classism).\r\n\r\nIn this talk, Dr. TeKisha Rice Wallace will present published and ongoing work form her research on associations between racism-related stress, individual wellbeing, and relationship functioning among partnered Black Americans. In addition, the talk will discuss how a macro-contextual stressor such as racism-related stress can be experienced as a relational stressor. The talk will conclude by reviewing the implications, limitations, and future directions for this field of research.\r\n\r\nDr. TeKisha Rice Wallace (she\/her) is an Assistant Professor of Human Development and Family Science at Virginia Tech where she directs the Relationship Experiences: Strengths and Strains (REST) Lab. Using quantitative and qualitative methods, her research examines the complex associations between social stressors, individual wellbeing, and relationship dynamics. Her research is driven by the belief that all people deserve to live long lives full of joy and authentic relationships that minimize the challenges of navigating inevitably hard times. Dr. Rice Wallace\u2019s research has been recognized by the International Association for Relationship Research.\r\n\r\nAbout the series:\r\n\r\nHumans are social animals and from the earliest days of life, are dependent on the quality of social relationships with significant others: family, kin, friends, and a growing social network of online acquaintances.

Please join us Mondays to learn more about the exciting field of social relationships!\r\n\r\nThese events are held Mondays from 3:30 to 5.\r\nIn person: ISR Thompson 1430, unless otherwise specified.\r\nOrganized by Brenda Volling and Richard Gonzalez.\r\nAs permissions allow, seminars are later posted to our YouTube playlist.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"137064-21879466@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/137064", "building_id":"1000145", "building_name":"Institute For Social Research", "building_official_id":1000145, "campus_maps_id":"76", "campus_maps_link_path":"institute-for-social-research", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/institute-for-social-research", "room":"1430", "location_name":"Institute For Social Research", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Psychology"], "website":"https:\/\/rcgd.isr.umich.edu\/", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/rcgd.isr.umich.edu\/", "title":null } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Research Center for Group Dynamics (RCGD)", "group_id":"4836", "website":"https:\/\/rcgd.isr.umich.edu\/" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137064_original-1.png", "image_description":"The Science of Social Relationships", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/crop-event_137064_original-1.png", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/crop-event_137064_original-1.png", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/crop-event_137064_original-1.png", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/crop-event_137064_original-1.png", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/crop-event_137064_original-1.png", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/crop-event_137064_original-1.png", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/crop-event_137064_original-1.png", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/crop-event_137064_original-1.png", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/crop-event_137064_original-1.png", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/crop-event_137064_original-1.png", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/crop-event_137064_original-1.png", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/crop-event_137064_original-1.png", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/crop-event_137064_original-1.png", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/crop-event_137064_original-1.png", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/crop-event_137064_original-1.png" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/137064\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21879466 } ]
