- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1815-attunement/chapter/the-bird-test-relationship-theory-on-tiktok.md

A viral social media trend known as "The Bird Test" uses a partner's reaction to a casual comment about a bird to gauge the health of a relationship. Based on research by John Gottman regarding "bids for connection," the test measures whether a partner "turns toward" or ignores their significant other. Psychologists warn that while the underlying science of micro-connections is valid, using hidden recordings to test partners on TikTok can be a boundary violation.
