Lucas, Todd; Parkhill, Michele R.; Wendorf, Craig A.; İmamoğlu, Emine Olcay; Weisfeld, Carol C.; Weisfeld, Glenn E.; Shen, Jiliang (SAGE Publications, 2008-01-01)
Couples assess their satisfaction with one another according to numerous culturally determined criteria.

Pişkin, Nazeli; Bilsel, F. Cânâ,; Department of Architecture (2019)
