TOWARDS

COMMUNICATION IN A LOVE RELATIONSHIP.

|The attitudes of males and females towards communication in a love relationship. |

Abstract.

Previous studies have shown that there is a relationship between communication and love relationships.

Each participant was given a questionnaire to complete at the comfort of their homes. The participants were assigned to complete the questionnaire in order to test their attitudes on communication. A t-test scale was used to determine the accuracy of the results. The results show that there is indeed a relationship between communication and love relationships. These results highlight the importance of communication in a love relationship.
