Answer to Question 1

The student should indicate that LAT marriage is defined as living-apart-together. These couples willingly choose not to live together for their independence yet they are committed to the marriage. Transnational marriages are those in which one partner lives outside of the country. Immigrants who come to the U.S. to work and will live here several years before traveling back home to their families.

Answer to Question 2

The student should discuss both positive and negative aspects of conflict. Positive aspects of conflict include airing of differences; keeping small issues from manifesting into larger, unmanageable problems; improving the relationship by providing validation; and building self-esteem. Negative conflict reduces self-esteem and alienates partners. Negative conflict styles include repressed anger, passive aggression, scapegoating, and gaslighting. The student should discuss these negative styles in detail.
