Project Part 2
Korean vs. German
Wedding Traditions Wedding traditions in general are a way in my view to solidify culture and heritage within which two people are joined in a ceremony to create an institution of marriage. There are many different forms of wedding traditions out there and still continues to change everyday due to the complexity of the way people choose to enhance their ways. Me, myself have heard of many different forms of wedding tradition to the simplest to the most extravagant of weddings. The two cultures that I have chosen to analyze for gathering impressions of, is that of the Korean Wedding tradition and that of the German Wedding tradition. I chose these two cultures because I have actually been to both of the countries, due to my military experience. My first impressions in general of the countries were of a positive factor overall, but the demeanor of the way business is conducted and the way that the people in general acts is of a natural state, meaning that they do have similarities to that of the people of the United States. Certain mannerisms do play parts in their characteristics that do differ from our core actions between one another, but in general both areas consider their likelihood just as we would do for ours. Koreans I found to be very hard working people along with very friendly in nature (South Koreans that is) and very reserve in their ways. As far as Germans, they came of kind of in a rude way at first until you get pass their rough exterior, but that was just the way they talked, mainly they were of a nice class of people with the interactions that I have had. That was my first impressions at the beginning. My first opinions were formed that both countries had some rude, stinky, obnoxious people along with generous kind and outgoing people, which I feel is everywhere. Those opinions formulated just from interaction

    Temptation pervades modern social life, including the temptation to engage in infidelity. The present investigation examines one factor that may put individuals at a greater risk of being unfaithful to their partner: dispositional avoidant attachment style. The authors hypothesize that avoidantly attached people may be less resistant to temptations for infidelity due to lower levels of commitment in romantic relationships. This hypothesis was confirmed in 8 studies. People with high, vs. low, levels of dispositional avoidant attachment had more permissive attitudes toward infidelity (Study 1), showed attentional bias toward attractive alternative partners (Study 2), expressed greater daily interest in meeting alternatives to their current relationship partner (Study 5), perceived alternatives to their current relationship partner more positively (Study 6), and engaged in more infidelity over time (Studies 3, 4, 7, and 8). This effect was mediated by lower levels of commitment (Studies 5– 8). Thus, avoidant attachment predicted a broad spectrum of responses indicative of interest in alternatives and propensity to engage in infidelity, which were mediated by low levels of commitment. Keywords: attachment style, infidelity, commitment, avoidance…
