An evaluation of a self-instructional marital enrichment training programmeLane, Terry January 1993 (has links)
This study is an evaluation of a self-instructional version of the Couples Communication Programme (CCP) in terms of its effect on marital and parent-child communication. Twelve families completed self report measures of marital and family life (the Marital Communication Inventory and the Family Environment Survey). As well an audio tape of a family discussion was rated by observers using the Sequential Analysis of Verbal Interaction. The mothers and fathers in each family then completed the self-instructional CCP over a one month period, following which the same measures were repeated. Fourteen additional families served as a wait-list control group, completing the same measurements with CCP training. Analysis of variance indicated no differences between the groups for the selected variables. These results suggest that self-instructional methods for couples communication may have limited usefulness. It is possible that this type of training could be improved by designing programmes which take into consideration gender differences in attitudes and learning styles.

Enriching marital communication and marital adjustment of couples from India living in the United StatesVijayalakshmi, Olaganatha P. 07 May 1997 (has links)
The primary objective of this investigation was to offer a marriage
enrichment workshop enabling the participants to increase their
communication and problem solving skills, and the prevention of future
marital distress through an educational experience.
Marital communication and marital adjustment scores were
obtained from an experimental group consisting of 16 married Indian
couples living in the United States who attended a marriage enrichment
workshop. These scores were compared with those scores derived from 16
married Indian couples living in the United States who participated in a
marriage enrichment workshop at a later date.
Nineteen hypotheses were generated which assumed that couples
participating in a marriage enrichment workshop would experience a
significant increase in their level of marital communication and marital
adjustment.
The five-session workshop was conducted on five consecutive
Saturdays, the duration of each session being three hours. The format for
the workshop included the exercises designed by Hendrix (1988) to improve
communication skills and practice new relationship skills. The importance
of creating a more loving and supportive relationship was emphasized in
the workshop.
The instruments used to study the dependent variables were the
Marital Communication Inventory and the Marital Adjustment Test. The
statistical treatment applied was Analysis Of Variance with repeated
measures. Subjects were tested on the first day of the workshop, the last day
of the workshop, and finally five weeks after the marriage enrichment
workshop.
The results indicated that the marriage enrichment workshop had
moderately significant positive effect on marital communication and
marital adjustment. The level of communication and adjustment showed
consistent statistically significant increase over time (five week delay) after
the workshop. In addition, the results established positive correlation
between marital communication and marital adjustment. Finally, the
content of the workshop designed by Hendrix (1988) was much appreciated
by all participants and they identified remarkable similarity between the
the Western thought and the Eastern culture. / Graduation date: 1997

A comparison of the effects of a structured experiential learning group and a structured marital enrichment group on the reduction of disparity in interpersonal perceptions between married couplesChastulik, Frank January 1980 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to examine the difference between the effects of two structured group experiences upon the reduction of disparity in interpersonal perceptions between married couples. A unique feature of this investigation was the attempt to develop a structured group specifically for the reduction of disparity of interpersonal perceptions between married couples.The experimental groups consisted of 15 married couples who volunteered to participate in the study. The couples were solicited by brochures and the news media. The couples were randomly assigned to one of two treatment groups: the structured experiential learning group or the structured marital enrichment group. The structured experiential learning group was exposed to exercises based on an educational-experiential format. The exercises were developed to emphasize self-actualization and insight into obstacles preventing a more satisfying marriage. The marital enrichment group was exposed to exercises designed to increase communication skills and interpersonal awareness. The experimental training took place over a two-week time period.Eight couples were exposed to eight consecutive hours of structured experiential learning exercises and seven couples were exposed to eight consecutive hours of structured marital enrichment exercises. Both groups were administered a pretest at the beginning of the scheduled exercises and a posttest five weeks after the scheduled exercises ended. No control group was used in this study as previous research indicated that married couples do not change without being exposed to an intervention process.The pretest and posttest score were determined by summing the differences among the nine variables on the Taylor-Johnson Temperament Analysis. The difference between the pretest and the posttest score was used to calculate a disparity change score. The disparity change score was utilized as the dependent variable.Three null hypotheses were examined stating that no statistical difference would be found between the two experimental groups in the reduction of disparity in interpersonal perceptions between married couples or between spouses of either group. A confidence level of .05 was established.The effects of the treatment were analyzed through the use of Analysis of Variance. Results of the statistical investigations indicated that there were no significant differences between the two groups in the reduction of disparity in interpersonal perceptions. No significant differences were found between the spouses in either of the group in the reduction of disparity in interpersonal perceptions.The conclusion was drawn that the two treatment groups were similar in their disparity change scores and that these scores were in the direction of reduction in disparity in interpersonal perceptions between married couples. This direction was consistent with previous research which concluded that marital counseling resulted in the reduction of disparity in interpersonal perceptions between married couples.The recommendation was made for additional research using the Taylor-Johnson Temperament Analysis and the resulting test scores in a counseling session prior to the clients' exposure to structured group experiences. This recommendation was made to assist the married couple in becoming aware of any interpersonal obstacles in the relationship. Additionally, research is needed on group exercises for married couples previously divorced versus exercises for couples not previously divorced. The use of insight therapy with the inclusion of communication techniques was also suggested for future research investigations.
