Describe the three dialects in relational dialectics theory, and give an example of each.
What will be an ideal response?
Examples will vary. The first dialectic is autonomy and connectedness. This concerns freedom and independence in tension with spending time with the other member of the relationship. An example would be a person in a relationship wanting to spend time alone or with friends away from their partner. The second dialectic is novelty and predictability. This concerns patterns in the relationship, and the extent to which the relationship exhibits spontaneity. An example would be a couple who has fallen into a pattern and no longer goes on dates, even though one member of the relationship would like more unpredictability and spontaneous romance. The final dialectic is openness and closedness. This concerns information shared between partners and the capacity to keep secrets. An example would be two people in the early stages of a relationship where one person wishes to keep elements of their past private from their partner, even though their partner wants full transparency.
