Alternative transcript:
often saw the end of the relationship in a positive light. (Grave-dressing) | EVALUATION Culture Bias The model is based on relationships from individualistic cultures, where ending the relationship is a voluntary choice - separation and divorce are easily obtained and do not carry stigma May not be the case in collectivist cultures, where relationships are sometimes arranged by wider family - so more family involvement May make relationships harder to end which means that break up process may not go through Duck's Phases ★ As a result, this model is culturally biased as it assumes that break up process is universal | EVALUATION Real Life Applications However, Duck's model has useful applications, especially in relation to couples' counselling. Couples may be advised to use different strategies depending on the phase they are currently in. For example, for a person in the intra-psychic phase it may be more useful to shift their attention to the positive aspects of their partner's personality, while for a couple in the dyadic phase | communication about dissatisfaction and ways to balance relationships is crucial. This shows that Duck's model of relationship breakdown can be used successfully to help couples contemplating break-up to improve their relationships and stay together.
