Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The question asks about Gottman and Levenson's 'four horsemen' and which are predictors of divorce, but the provided data lacks the list of answer choices.

What we know from the research on the four horsemen of the apocalypse in marital relationships:
- The four horsemen are commonly identified as: criticism, contempt, defensiveness, and stonewalling. These behaviors have been repeatedly associated with relationship dissatisfaction and higher risk of divorce in Gottman’s work.
- Each horseman represents a distinct pattern: criticism targets the partner's character rather than the behavior, contempt conveys disrespect and disdain, defensiveness shifts blame away from oneself, and stonewalling involves withdrawal and emotional shutdown.

Because the actual answer options are missing in the provided item, we cannot evaluate which specific choices are considered predictors in this question.

If the options had named items consistent with Gottman’s framework, the reasoning would involve checking which items map onto the four horsemen and which have been empirically linked to divorce outcomes in his findings. For example, statements aligning with criticism or contempt would generally be associated with higher divorce risk, while options that describe less harmful communication patterns (like validating, accepting influence, or repair attempts) would typically not be labeled as predictors in this context.

In the absence of the listed choices, there isn’t enough information to determine which option(s) are deemed correct in this particular question. If you can provide the full set of answer options, I can walk through each one and explain why it would or would not be considered a predictor of divorce according to Gottman and Levenson’s framework.
