Abstract

Replies to comments made by Hawkins et al. (see record 2013-04752-002) on the author's original article (see record 2012-08242-001). I am gratified and encouraged that such an esteemed group of relationship scientists as Hawkins et al. I want to continue the discussion of government-supported marriage and relationship education (MRE) programs for lower income couples by responding to my article (Johnson, May-June 2012). In their comment, they argued that there are data that support the efficacy of MRE programs for disadvantaged couples and that the benefits of these programs outweigh the costs. My response to both of these points follows.

摘要

对霍金斯等人（见记录 2013-04752-002）就作者原创文章（见记录 2012-08242-001）所发表评论的回复。我很高兴并受到鼓舞的是，像霍金斯等人这样一群受人尊敬的关系科学家。我想继续讨论政府支持的婚姻和关系教育（MRE）计划，以帮助低收入夫妇，我对我的文章（约翰逊，2012 年 5-6 月）进行了回复。在他们的评论中，他们认为有数据支持 MRE 计划对弱势群体的有效性，并且这些计划的收益超过了成本。我对这两点的回应如下。
