Couples integration

Notes

Section from the interactive two-leg model reference: attachment and assertiveness legs, coping modes under stress, and tools that support balance.

Psychoeducation only. Concepts here support self-understanding and conversations with a qualified professional; they are not a clinical diagnosis or mode inventory score.

Platform implementation notes

  • Interactive mode map: Users fill in their own map after YSQ results; optional schema-informed suggestions; show both axes; color code blue (attachment/submission), red (assertiveness/dominance), gray (avoidant), teal/green for integrated Healthy Adult / Contented Child. The same page and clinical report also surface the two-leg and coordinate reference SVGs above for orientation.
  • Couples dyadic map: Side-by-side maps with arrows for triggering patterns (e.g. compliant surrender → overcompensator). Aligns with /share/schema-ysq-couple/ dyadic profile.
  • Visualization priority: (1) Two-leg model, (2) personal mode map, (3) dyadic mode map.
