Personal Application Introduction Statement
Communication is one of the most important aspects of marriage that could determine its
longevity. Findings suggested that communication exhibited some degree of predictability to
marital satisfaction, and as mentioned, earlier studies have revealed that 70 percent of marital
communication predicts the level of marital satisfaction (Khezri, Hassan, & Nordin, 2020). This
portrays the importance of people’s interaction and responsibility to express themselves so that
there won’t be any conflict arising due to misconceptions.
Relating to Personal Experience
In my life, communication has played a vital role in my interpersonal relationships, for
instance, with my wife (Samadi et al., 2021). We have prescribed the practice of sharing our
concerns and not expressing ourselves judgmentally, thus assisting in preventing the escalation
of conflicts; it further cements the notion that communication is the key to building trust and
emotional bonds in a romantic relationship. As stated by Walker et al. (2024), the outcomes of
controlling relationship conflicts are detected to have fewer conflicts and a high level of marriage
satisfaction by couples with efficient active listening practices and unambiguous angry
expressions (Walker et al., 2024). I have noticed this more because frequent communication has
helped us appreciate each other’s opinions.
Impact of Research on Understanding
Studying communication in marriage has helped me understand the critical impact that
emotional validation assertively has in a marriage. I now know that it is not all about speaking
but also about ensuring the other person comprehends what you are trying to say. I have applied
this to engaging my spouse in discussions, making them more deliberate and courteous.
Therefore, I hope this shows that communication is necessary to build up the bond we have
today.

Societal Impact Section
Introduction Statement on Prevalence and Impact
The degree of communication in marriage significantly affects the relationship's stability
and the greater family welfare. A poor communication style has been identified as a substantial
contributor to approximately 65% of divorces in the United States (Sacks, 2023). This makes it
imperative to talk about communication in marriage because it can affect the pair, their kids, and
the dynamics of the entire family.
Impact on Society
Successful communication in a marriage positively affects society by enhancing family
ties, limiting divorce risk, and increasing the mental health benefits for everyone involved. Data
from research shows that children who grow up in homes where their parents communicate
effectively tend to have fewer emotional and behavioral issues, leading to more stable future
generations (Narayan, Lieberman, & Masten, 2021). However, inadequate communication may
result in growing family conflict, stress, and mental health difficulties, thus creating societal
strains like ratcheting up healthcare bills and requiring more social assistance.
Global Impact
Differing cultures experience communication within marriage in diverse ways
worldwide. In Japan, where indirect communication is typical, the absence of open emotion
sharing among partners has increased emotional detachment, thus contributing to a rising divorce
pattern (Tamura & Lau, 2023). In contrast, in Western societies like Sweden, where
communication is promoted as direct and straightforward, pairs report improved marital
satisfaction and lower divorce rates (Martins et al., 2023). The cultural variations show how the
norms surrounding communication can either improve or undermine matrimonial outcomes.
