The Breakup Prediction Test is an instrument based on widely cited research in the area of relationships and marriage. Psychologists have observed hundreds of couples engaging with one another in order to identify conversational factors that can make or break a relationship: harsh start-ups, “the four horsemen” (criticism, contempt, defensiveness, and stonewalling), flooding, body language, failed repairs, and bad memories.
