5. Dyadic PsychologyDyadic Psychology
• “Equallyokedtarians” are of interest to social
psychologists because they represent a dyadic group
of the same (or nearly equal/similar)‘civil identity.’
• Couples who primarily choose to bond and marry
together ‘because’ they are the ‘same’ or ‘very
similar’ civil identities, among other reasons, may
contribute to marital longevity-staying together for
a lifetime as.. evidenced.
• The measured ‘self esteem’ of individuals of a
marital couple who marries with backgrounds related
to their own ‘civil identities’ are worthy marital
satisfaction studies as well.

6. ““Kiss ‘n’ Tell”Kiss ‘n’ Tell”
• Study: Tally whether individuals can ‘guess’ if someone is of
the same ‘civil identity’ or not when blindfolded.
• Lab: Anonymous individuals – One female and one male -
were blindfolded - out of sight to one another.
• Clinical Procedure: The couples blind-folded were
‘equallyoked’ and ‘unequallyoked’ and presented to meet one
another under strict observation for a brief period.
• Couples were then instructed to choose - whether to touch
(hand-shake), hug (socially), social kiss (European cheek-kiss)
and talk for a limited time period.
• Individuals recorded whether the
anonymous other was ‘equallyoked’
or not equallyoked.

14. AttitudesAttitudes in thein the Equally-yokedEqually-yoked
A new generation of social psychologists are now
interested in the components of attitudes, how
attitudes develop and how attitudes change
particularly amongst the ‘equally yoked’.
Dyadic Psychologist’s area of major research involves
the study of attitudes amongst ‘equally yoked’
couples and ‘unequally yoked’ couples too.
Three core components of attitude are the ABCs:
Affective (the feelings), Behavioral (habits and
lifestyle), and the Cognitive (understanding).

18. Modern Social PsychologyModern Social Psychology
Today, social psychologists study the traits and factors that
either prevent or lead ‘equally yoked’ dyads to relate to, bond
with, and marry or otherwise.(a)
Still other social psychologists look at unequally yoked
dyad’s acting out in the presence of others, and the social
pathology under which certain actions and negative reactions
and feelings occur.(ibid)
Social psychologists who study ‘equally yoked’ couples are
‘normative’ investigators-who are concerned with the way
feelings, thoughts, beliefs, intentions and goals are constructed
and how such psychological factors, in turn, influence our
interactions with others.(b)

• “A massive review of historic sacred literature
identifying any reference to, and all forms of,
‘Equallyokedtarianism’ with a confirmation, baptism
or ritual religiousity within or outside of sectarianism,
even into formal Christianity reveals that it is a holy
relationship designed by the Father above.”12

• A randomized study of unequally yoked couples was
compared to identified equally yoked couples
concerning: what ‘success’ meant to each of the
individuals within the coupleship - the results were
that – the Unequally yoked couples’s understanding
and definitions of ‘success’ focused more on
corporations and monetary wealth. While equally
yoked couples yielded resulted with high levels of
personal values satisfaction, financial stability, and
outcomes related to social benefits.15
