Android-based framework for increasing marriage satisfaction based on psychological aspects

Abstract

This paper presents the development of Android-based framework for improving marriage satisfaction without having to spend time and money for the marriage counselor. Classic research in psychology found that stability of marriage is based on the ability to create and maintain a positive interaction ratio 5 times more than negative interactions. Based on that, we propose a method to record information of daily positive behaviors (joking, showing affection) of couples that using our application. We propose a method where the apps can determine users' marital satisfaction level and also can help the users to increasing their marriage satisfaction based on the assessment of the results of questionnaire and the assessment of user's behaviors to their partners using fuzzy logic. The experimental results are presented and shown the application is running well on mobile devices based on Android platform.
