Cuyamaca College Divorce Factor and Causes Discussion

1. Choose a relationship/family problem (you may want to return to the question you submitted at the beginning of the course). Please tell me what the issue you’ve chosen is. What are five sociological, community, religious, psychological or economic factors that predict the likelihood of this problem occurring? What are five factors that mitigate against the likelihood of this problem occurring? Why do you think these factors impact the relationship in this way?

Now thinking about the healthy version of this relationship, describe some of important behavior dynamics (as shown by the research) and explain why (or why you think) these dynamics produce the positive outcomes. Provide evidence from this module (and any of the previous modules in the course) to support your argument. (Essay should be 2-3 pages)

This assignment is optional. I love this film https://www.thehappymovie.com/film/ (Links to an external site.) but I don’t assign it because it’s not available for free (as far as I know). But after your classmate, Hailey Kerr, asked for an extra credit opportunity and found links to share with the class, I agreed to provide this assignment as extra credit (Yes, you can thank Hailey).
