Communication About Important Transitions in Consensually Non-Monogamous Relationships
Happy January my lovelies! Time to participate in science!
West Virginia University PhD candidate, Rachael Purtell, is conducting interpersonal communication research with consensually non-monogamous populations. She is currently investigating communication among people in long-term, committed CNM partnerships navigating major transitions in their relationship(s). Broadly, this study is interested in communication within traditional underrepresented romantic relationships and how social issues are communicated and perpetuated in and by organizations.
