John Gottman on Anderson Cooper

John Gottman was recently on Anderson Cooper’s show and there was some great stuff talked about that highlighted some of the practical applications of his scientific research
Gottman is a well respected couple’s relationship researcher who can predict with 94% accuracy whether a couple will get divorced by looking, over the course of about 3 hours, at:

  • how they talk about each other,
  • how they talk to each other and
  • what happens to their body (heart rate, blood pressure, etc.) when they talk to each other.

This has created a body of knowledge where we know what behaviors are destructive to relationships, and which are conducive to lasting relationships that is hard-core, solid stuff.
