The family process dimension of "time" is critical to understanding and explaining family
change. Time is best measured in family development theory as: - Answer- life events
time (stages depend on your current life events)

A basic assumption of exchange theory is the individuals are rational. This means that: -
Answer- If several individuals find themselves in the same situation with the same exact
information, and they find the same things rewarding, they will all likely act in the same
way

What area of research would be most easily studied from an Exchange Theory
framework/perspective? - Answer- Why people choose one church over another

Exchange theory stems from which paradigm? - Answer- positivistic

When an individual is evaluating the profit available to them they may use either the
Comparison Level of Comparison Level for Alternatives. Which of the answers below
shows an example of Comparison Level? - Answer- John compares his marriage with
his brother Allan's marriage to determine if he (John) has a good marriage (i.e. is
profiting in his marriage)

What is the difference between reward and a profit? - Answer- Reward is something
tangible or intangible that is desired. It could be one time or something desired more
frequently. Profit is what is left after you take the reward minus the costs. (Profit =
Reward-Costs)

Comparison level: - Answer- This is when you compare your situation (the
profit=reward-cost) to the someone in a similar situation.

, Paradigms/ philosophies of science - Answer- Positivism: positive facts to discover,
scientific method, laws of science, no emotional feelings

Interpretive: truths are created," Context is important. "It depends on the situation." This
theory does not focus on the facts, but how the facts are interpreted.

Conflict/critical: There are the haves, and the have nots. Conflict exists over the scarce
resources.

Tenets of Positivism: - Answer- There are phenomena and processes that operate
independently of human awareness of them.

There are laws that govern at least some of the phenomena and processes.

We can discover these laws through the scientific processes.

Knowledge of these laws can help humans to predict and control some of the
phenomena and processes.

This type of prediction and control can help humans better meet their needs and
desires.

Tenets of Interpretive: - Answer- Natural science methods are not always appropriate
for gaining insight into human interaction.

Many human actions cannot be predicted or controlled.

Attempts to manipulate and control others are not ethical.

There is no single reality of life; knowledge is created by individuals living in a historical
era.
Gaining understanding or reflecting on meaning will serve as a catalyst for action.

Tenets of Conflict/critical - Answer- In situations of inequality, those groups that control
resources are likely to exploit those that lack resources.

Exploitations may not be conscious calculation by those in control, but rather merely the
pursuits of their own self interests. In the process they take advantage of those who lack
resources.

Those with resource, and thus the power, can impose their idea systems on those
without resources. I.e., those without resources have an idea system imposed on them.

Conflict allows for change, but conflict is not solvable.
