“…Dyadic synchrony involves coordinated and co-regulated exchanges between people; it is a property of interaction rather than a property of individuals or relationships (Harrist & Waugh, 2002). Dyadic synchrony is independent of positive affect (Harrist & Waugh, 2002), includes both verbal and nonverbal cues (Ivy & Gleason, 2022; Knobloch & Solomon, 2003), and is evaluated positively by interactants (Ebesu Hubbard, 2000). Although often studied in the context of parent/child relationships (e.g., McKillop & Connell, 2018), dyadic synchrony also has relevance for romantic relationships (Ivy & Gleason, 2022; Solomon et al, 2016).…”

Relational uncertainty refers to the questions people have about their perceptions of involvement within close relationships. To complement a wealth of research examining the link between relational uncertainty and people’s self-reported communication strategies, we investigate relational uncertainty as a predictor of behavioral sequences within interaction. We draw on both seminal and contemporary theorizing to hypothesize that relational uncertainty impedes dyadic synchrony, or the coordination between partners within interaction. Couples ( N = 97) participated in a 5-minute discussion designed to facilitate expressions of intimacy; we coded these interactions using the circumplex-based Structural Analysis of Social Behavior (SASB) model. We evaluated whether couples experiencing relational uncertainty exhibit forms of dyadic asynchrony in which self-disclosure and validation are met by a partner’s hostility. Sequential analyses revealed that, after covarying relationship quality, relationship uncertainty was associated with sequences of self-disclosure/hostility among men ( H1), and self uncertainty and relationship uncertainty were associated with sequences of validation/hostility among both men and women ( H2). Partner uncertainty did not predict dyadic asynchrony in either form. These findings advance scholarship on relational uncertainty by underscoring the importance of sequential exchanges within couple interaction.

“…Impressions given are deliberate, while impressions given off are those that were not intended but were still received by the audience. In an offline context, non-verbal acts are less filtered than verbal ones, and thus can often reveal the true status of a relationship(Ivy & Gleason, 2022) through the impressions that are given off. On the other hand, the affordances of online platforms, such as the editability of a social media site, allow for more controllable forms of non-verbal communication.…”

shoutout as well goes to Valerie, for her constant willingness to help, her steady presence and her emotional support since I was an undergraduate.Last but not least, I would like to thank the school, WKWSCI, for providing me with many opportunities to develop as a graduate student. I am extremely grateful to Shireen for helping to arrange some of these opportunities, and for her gracious help in all things administrative. This has been a memorable two years, and I feel privileged to have had a supportive and conducive environment to work on my thesis and other research projects.
