Aim and Background: Educating couples is very important to resolve the conflicts created in marital relationship. Accordingly, the purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of relationship enrichment program training in reducing latent communication aggression and increasing relationship maintenance strategies.
Methods and Materials: The method of the study was semi-experimental with pre-test, post-test, and follow-up with control group design. The statistical population included all couples seeking divorce who referred to the Pre-Divorce Counseling Center of the Deputy for Prevention of Justice located in the city of Karaj in 1400-99. A total of 21 couples using simple random sampling method were selected and divided into two experimental groups (each the group was divided into 7 pairs and a control group (7 pairs). The experimental groups underwent communication enrichment training (7 sessions of 90 minutes). But the control group did not receive any intervention. Hidden communication aggression questionnaires (1) and relationship retention strategies (RMSM) were used to collect information. Multivariate analysis of covariance, analysis of covariance, Tukey and Scheffe post hoc test and repeated measures of multivariate (profile analysis) were used to analyze the data. SPSS software version 25 was used to analyze the data.
Findings: The results showed that relationship-based enrichment training was effective in reducing communication aggression in the post-test and follow-up stages (P≤0.001). Also, training based on communication enrichment was effective in increasing relationship maintenance strategies in the post-test and follow-up stages (P≤0.001).
Conclusions: According to the findings, it can be stated that the effectiveness of relationship enrichment program training is effective in reducing latent communication aggression and increasing relationship maintenance strategies.
