Dr. John Gottman runs the "Love Lab" at the University of Washington in Seattle, where he analyzes the way couples communicate with each other and studies what their bodies are doing as they discuss issues in their relationship.
John Gottman’s finding that a happy relationship needs five positive interactions for every negative interaction is widely cited; he and Julie Gottman have founded an institute that hosts couples workshops and other events; they even have apps.
Psychologist John Gottman and applied mathematicians James Murray and Kristin Swanson claim their predictions have 94% accuracy — and this after viewing just the first few moments of a conversation about an area of marital contention.
The Gottman Method is designed to support couples to create and maintain greater love and health in relationships, irrespective of race, religion, class, culture, sexual orientation, and ethnicity.
