Epistemology is basically the study of how we know things or how we obtain knowledge of something to justify it. There are many ways to obtain this knowledge. One way is to compare your perspective to

Zick and what he thought about love and what he did to find out what love really is by setting up different experiments and obervations to justify what love really was, or if it is love at all. By anaylzing the

similiarities that each group came up with, helps me understand love more clearly and justifies my feeling on love even more. After we came up with all the results from each group they were alomost similiar in

some ways such as love being very complex. Rubin Zick was one fo the first physcologist to set up experiments to determinhe whether it is love or just a strong liking towards someone that was mistaken for

love. Rubin knew that love was not a definite concept and is therefore difficult to measure. Rubin's scales of liking and loving offer a way to measure the complex feeling of love. He also came up with a
