The effects of home-based couple relationship education on couple relationships, mental health and work performance. (2010–2012)

Abstract:
Effective, accessible couple relationship education (CRE) might reduce the enormous costs of relationship distress and separations. The proposed research addresses four unanswered questions. (1) Can an innovative couple relationship education program, which uses information technology to allow couples to complete the program at home, enhance relationship satisfaction and stability? (2) Which couples benefit? (3) How does the program have its effects? (4) Do enhanced couple relationships improve adult mental health and work performance? Answers to these questions will provide an evidence base to guide practice in the development and dissemination of couple relationship education.
