چکیده
Although the marital therapy literature recognizes the importance of quid pro quo in marital negotiations, there has been little attention to certain important sources of power for men and women in that process. This paper will show how parental investment, certainty of paternity, patterns of mate preference, intrasexual competition, and reproductive status all affect the bargaining positions of men and women.

These considerations form a central part of the socioecology of marriage.
