Despite the considerable importance often attributed to interpersonal perception between married partners, family members, and other intimates, there have been few theoretical developments that address the distinctive factors affecting perception in these contexts.

Particular attention is given to the role of perceptual bias in intimate conflict and relationship adjustment.
