All Relationship And Social-Emotional Phenomena

A psychological phenomenon centered on a bond, an attachment or an emotional dynamic between people, spanning romantic relationships, caregiving relationships and the wider fabric of interpersonal connection and its breakdown. This group gathers the relationship and social-emotional phenomena recorded for this atlas, from documented effects describing how caregivers, partners or strangers come to feel emotionally bound to one another, to phenomena describing the erosion or absence of that bond, each distinguished by the entity's own recorded description centering on a relationship between specific people rather than a general social or crowd dynamic.
