Sliding vs. Deciding: Understanding a Mystery

By Scott M. Stanley, Research Professor and Co-director of the Center for Marital and Family Studies, and Galena K. Rhoades is a senior researcher at the Center for Marital and Family Studies, University of Denver.

There are many fundamental shifts in how people do relationships in industrialized nations, and the increase in the prevalence of cohabitation instead of marriage or prior to marriage would be near the top of the list. The mystery is this: The belief that cohabiting prior to marriage lowers one's odds of divorce has no evidence going for it, yet it is a strongly held belief.

Margaret Arcus Award Address - Video Recording

According to conference evaluations, all who attended this presentation by Wally Goddard at the 2010 Annual Conference shared the same opinion...this was not a speech to be missed if you care about family life education and University outreach.

This video is for you...set aside some time to hear why skills, although the focus of much FLE, are only a small part of what enables people to sustain healthy relationships. Hear more about: perceptual systems and interpretive biases; cultural norms that support or challenge relationships, and processes that family life educators can encourage to help people manage bias, ferret out cultural nonsense, and build strong family relationships.
