Social Exchange Theory

We have discussed why we form relationships, what attracts us to others, and different types of love. But what determines whether we are satisfied with and stay in a relationship? One theory that provides an explanation is social exchange theory. According to social exchange theory, we act as naïve economists in keeping a tally of the ratio of costs and benefits of forming and maintaining a relationship with others (Rusbult & Van Lange, 2003).

Area of Science:

  • Community Psychology
  • Social Change Research

Background:

  • Global challenges like climate and ecological emergencies necessitate social change.
  • Community psychology has a historical connection to social change, but its application requires refinement.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore participant-generated examples and responses to social change.
  • To refocus community psychology's praxis in the context of current global needs.
  • To analyze the significance and valence of various social change examples.

Main Methods:

  • A two-stage, mixed-methods Delphi study.
  • Stage 1: Gathering 190 participant-generated examples of social change.
  • Stage 2: Collecting significance and valence ratings from 232 participants on 52 identified examples.

Main Results:

  • Thematic analysis of 52 examples yielded four themes: Legal protections/rights/equality, technological impacts, political events/governance, and societal beliefs/behavior.
  • All examples were rated as significant by participants.
  • Most examples were perceived positively, with some neutral and negative examples identified.

Conclusions:

  • Social changes encompass a wide spectrum with varying significance and valence.
  • Findings can inform and enhance community psychology's contribution to progressive social change.
  • There is an urgent need for community psychology's engagement in driving social change.
