Instrument Tittle : Relationship Functioning Scale

There are many things that make humans human. One significant part is the ability to
frame and keep up with connections. These connections are totally essential for any of us to get
by, learn, work, love, and reproduce. Human connections take many structures however the
most serious, generally pleasurable and most difficult are those associations with family,
companions and friends and family. Inside this internal circle of personal connections we are
bonded to each other with emotional paste — bonded with love.

The Relationship Functioning Scale is a 60-item test that is divided with 3 subscales
(Expressiveness/ Love Languages, Solidarity and Contradictory) intended to assess general
satisfaction in a relationship. Each subscale consists of 20 items. This scale uses a 5 point
Likert scale which responders specify their level of agreement to a statement typically in five
points: (1);Never does this (2)Seldom do this; (3) Sometimes do this (4) Frequent do this (5)
Usually do this.

This scale measures an individual's impression of the nature of their relationship towards
other people. And also, the scale was developed to let the individual knows and increase their
awareness regarding the nature of viably passing on an idea or feeling (Expressiveness/ Love
Languages), understanding between and support for the individuals from a gathering (Solidarity)
and a conflict between people’s relationship that emerge out of a distinction in point of view,
mentalities, getting, interests, necessities and even in some cases insights. (Contradictory).
