Executives at a large corporation hired a psychologist to evaluate two physical fitness programs that differed specifically in the degree to which diet and nutritional suggestions were part of the
program. Both plans required regular exercise but Plan N included diet/nutritional requirements for
all participants while Plan E only emphasized a regular exercise program for all participants, but did
not require participants to change their eating habits. The nature and amount of exercise required
in the two programs were essentially the same. Two hundred employees were placed in equal
numbers (100) to either Program Nor Program E. Each program lasted 6 months, during which time
employee absenteeism in each group was monitored. At the end of the program, participants were
given a questionnaire designed to assess attitudes toward the company and the fitness program.
Because of transfers within the company, firing and quitting of employees, and other reasons not
able to be documented, only 75 out of 100 employees in Group E finished the program, and only 50
of the original 100 participants from Program N completed the 6-month program. The psychologist
judged that these sample sizes were still sufficiently large enough to assess adequately the effect of

if interdependence implies a two-way dependence, and if each partner is equally dependent on the other for success, then there is an equal commitment to the making the partnership successful. the advantage is sustainability of the relationship, the disadvantage is that decisions are "democratic" and therefore may take longer to reach and more likely to be a compromise (which is not always the best solution). as the interdependence moves away from equality, the decisions become more influenced by the more independent partner. in the extreme the relationship becomes more dictatorial and more like "master-slave". generally the relationship has less commitment in both directions and is more likely to be temporary.

if one generalizes (and one shouldn't), equity partnerships, which is probably what is implied by interdependence, can be slow to progress or change but durable. the extreme alternative, independent-dependent partnerships tend to be efficient but more fragile.

hope this but you will have to site your own evidence. : )

well it depends i think people around the world are coming around to gay marriage. but if you are talking abortion then wow, so much to talk about. such as men thinking they have the right to choose if women can, the fact there are health concerns if the women can't get one, and many more arguments to discuss. so i would definitely say abortion would be a much more interesting topic.
