| The NYU Couples Lab is directed
by Professor Patrick E. Shrout, and it focuses on two kinds of
research, one substantive and the other methodological. Our
substantive interests are concerned with how daily transactions of
social support affect psychological functioning of individual
partners and also how they affect relationship processes such as
intimacy, conflict and satisfaction. In addressing these
questions we consider social cognitive perspectives, motivational
perspectives, as well as relationship perspectives. Our methodological interests are primarily concerned with the formulation of statistical models of dependency in dyadic diary data. We work with multilevel models, structural equation models, and dynamic process models. We are particularly interested in evaluating the payoff of complex modern statistical methods on insights in relationship processes. We are also interested in measurement issues in daily diary studies, including first day effects in surveys and indices of generarlizability of diary measures. Our lab collaborates with the lab at Columbia University run by Professor Niall Bolger. Current NYU Lab members include
