This type of marital communication is referred to as demand-withdraw communication.

What is the meaning of demand-withdraw communication?

A prevalent, harmful pattern of contact is the demand-withdraw pattern, in which one spouse places the blame or applies pressure, and the other spouse avoids or withdraws.

Studies repeatedly demonstrate that:

  1. there is often a gender difference in the interactional roles, with women tending to demand and men tending to withdraw
  2. demand-withdraw behaviors are linked to marital discontent.

Conflict leads to demand-withdrawal behaviors in both middle-aged and older couples.
