Answer to Question 1

c

Answer to Question 2

Overall marital satisfaction is highest at the beginning of the marriage, falls until the children begin leaving the home, and rises again later in life. For some couples, satisfaction never rebounds and remains low (emotional divorce). Marriages tend to stay strong and close when dependence is mutual and both people hold similar values that form the basis for their commitment to each other. The vulnerability-stress-adaptation model sees marital quality as a dynamic process resulting from the couple's ability to handle stressful events in the context of their particular vulnerabilities and resources. For example, as a couple's ability to adapt to stressful situations gets better over time, the quality of the marriage probably will improve.
