A Model of Breakdown (Breakdown)

1. Step 6. ------------ process = Recreating sense of own social value, defining what to get out of future relationships & preparation for different sort of relational future (What I learned and how things will be different) (12)
7. Step 3. ------ process =Uncertainty, anxiety, hostility & complaints - talk about relationship & reassessment of goals and commitments (I mean it) (6)
8. Step 4. ------ process =Going public, seeking support from others (It's now inevitable) (6)
9. This model stresses the importance of ------------- in relationship breakdown. (13)

2. Paying ---------- to what people say (topics that they discuss & the way they talk about their relationship) offers an insight into their stage & also suggests interventions appropriate to that stage (e.g. Intrapsychic stage = others can help) (9)
3. Step 2. ------------ process = Social withdrawal; resentment, brooding on partner's faults & relational costs (I'd be justified in leaving) (12)
4. Step 1. --------- = Dissatisfaction with relationship (I can't stand this anymore) (9)
5. IDA - ------- issues - Sensitive area & can raise issues of vulnerability, privacy & confidentiality (e.g. a woman in an abusive relationship could fear her partner finding out about her participation, raising her distress) (7)
6. Who supported this model by surveying undergrads who'd recently broken up with a partner? Students reported they'd experienced emotional distress but also personal growth & they said it'd given them new insights into themselves & future relationships (7, 3, 7)
10. Who came up with this model? (6, 3, 4)
