The Science Of Trust by John Mordechai Gottman
Emotional Attunement for Couples
A research-grounded guide to building and repairing trust in intimate relationships, explaining how small, everyday “sliding door” moments, bids for connection, and patterns of response accumulate into either betrayal or loyalty. It translates decades of lab observations, physiological data, and mathematical modeling into practical tools—such as recognizing the Four Horsemen, using gentle start-ups and effective repair attempts, self-soothing, and the ATTUNE framework (awareness, turning toward, tolerance, understanding, nondefensive responding, empathy)—to navigate conflict, foster emotional attunement, and create a resilient culture of shared meaning.
