1. There are many different self-assessment tests on the Web that deal with interpersonal communication. The site at http://www.queendom.com/tests/relationships/index.html has several assessments including those for self-disclosure, communication skills, conflict management, commitment readiness, and relationship satisfaction. The site at http://rabbitbrush.com/personality/index.html has a test on personality type and communication patterns in relationships. Finally, the site http://www.wellnessnet.com/testrelat.htm has a test of stress and its effect on interpersonal relationships. Take any of these tests and analyze the results. Do they seem accurate, informative, helpful, or not? Why?

2. The Microsoft website, msn.com, has many pages related to interpersonal relationships. A particularly interesting article, "Online Dating Etiquette: 12 Basic Rules," is located at http://love.msn.com/articles/article2.asp. Read the article and respond to the rules it lists. What is the goal of these rules of etiquette? Why is such etiquette necessary or unnecessary? How do these rules differ from traditional dating relationships?
