One of the most important causes of marital dissatisfaction is the lack of life skills. This study aimed to compare the effects of training self-awareness and problem-solving skills on marital satisfaction of married women.
This study was a randomized field trial conducted in Gorgan since October 2019 to September 2020. A total of 105 married women were allocated to one of two interventions or a control group based on triplex block randomization. Data collection tools were the Persian version of the self-awareness questionnaire, problem-solving questionnaire and Four ENRICH Couple Scales. The participants completed the questionnaires before (T1), immediately (T2), and one month after the intervention completion (T3). The first intervention group received self-awareness skills training and the second received problem-solving skills training one session per week for four weeks. The control group did not receive any training. Data were analyzed using One-way ANOVA, Kruskal-Wallis, Chi-square, Fishers exact test, exact test, repeated measure ANOVA, and Bonferroni test, using SPSS 16. A P value <0.05 was considered significant.
The mean score of ENRICH Scales in the three groups, immediately and one month after the intervention, were not statistically significant (P>0.05). However, in the problem-solving group, the scale of marital satisfaction was significantly different at T2 and T3 (31.40±4.55, 33±5.21, P=0.008). In the self-awareness training group at T1 and T3, the mean of the conflict resolution scale (32.60±63.28, 33.94±5.74, P=0.03) was significantly different.
The results showed that problem-solving skills training was more effective in increasing the score of marital satisfaction compared to self-awareness skills training. IRCT20190721044290N1.
婚姻不满的最重要原因之一是缺乏生活技能。本研究旨在比较自我意识和解决问题技能培训对已婚女性婚姻满意度的影响。
这是一项于 2019 年 10 月至 2020 年 9 月在戈尔甘进行的随机现场试验。根据三重块随机化，将 105 名已婚妇女分配到两种干预措施之一或对照组。数据收集工具是波斯语自我意识问卷、解决问题问卷和四 ENRICH 夫妇量表。参与者在干预前（T1）、即刻（T2）和干预完成后一个月（T3）完成问卷。第一组接受自我意识技能培训，第二组每周接受一次解决问题技能培训，共四周。对照组不接受任何培训。使用 SPSS 16 进行单因素方差分析、克鲁斯卡尔-沃利斯检验、卡方检验、Fisher 确切检验、确切检验、重复测量方差分析和 Bonferroni 检验。P 值<0.05 被认为具有统计学意义。
三组 ENRICH 量表的平均分在干预后即刻和一个月后均无统计学意义（P>0.05）。然而，在解决问题组中，T2 和 T3 时婚姻满意度量表差异显著（31.40±4.55，33±5.21，P=0.008）。在自我意识训练组中，T1 和 T3 时冲突解决量表的平均值（32.60±63.28，33.94±5.74，P=0.03）差异显著。
结果表明，与自我意识技能培训相比，解决问题技能培训更能提高婚姻满意度得分。IRCT20190721044290N1。
