Top relationship scholars from around the world will present research and examine emerging scientific information on topics including predictors of successful marriages; whether humans are meant to be monogamous; and whether men and women differ in how they fight.

The biennial meeting of the International Association for Relationship Research will be held July 12 to 16 at the Palmer House Hilton Hotel, 17 E. Monroe Street, Chicago, Ill. The conference is principally sponsored by DePaul University.
