Model Komunikasi Antarpribadi Breadwinner Moms dalam Membangun Rumah Tangga yang Harmonis di Desa Bandar Klippa Kecamatan Percut Sei Tuan Kabupaten Deli Serdang Provinsi Sumatera Utara Indonesia

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the communication process, role exchange, and interpersonal communication model of breadwinner mothers in building a harmonious household in Bandar Klippa Village, Percut Sei Tuan District, Deli Serdang Regency, North Sumatra Province, Indonesia. Researchers used Joseph DeVito's Interpersonal Communication Theory and affection exchange theory as research references to look at the communication process, role exchange, and communication models that exist among research informants. The method used in this research is a descriptive method with a qualitative approach so that the data is then explained in sentence form. Researchers used interview and documentation techniques to collect data from informants and triangulation. Researchers used data analysis using the Miles Huberman and Saldana method which includes data condensation, data presentation, and then drawing conclusions. After experiencing data saturation, the researchers involved 4 (four) married couples as informants. The results found by researchers include that the communication process continues because there is an element of mutual love and need for each other, the exchange of roles that occurs is contrary to functional structure and cultural norms, so the word "boru" appears. For Batak husbands who help with household work, the communication model that occurs is the Schramm model combined with the theory of the division of roles and needs from the discipline of psychology.
