Abstract:
Previous research has revealed that group behavioral therapy for distressed couples provides an effective and efficient form of marital treatment. However, research comparing alternative group approaches is lacking. The current investigation evaluated group behavioral and cognitive-behavioral marital treatments across a variety of relationship dimensions and measures of individual functioning. Dysfunctional couples were randomly assigned to experimental conditions and demonstrated statistically and clinically significant improvement as contrasted with the waiting list control group. These results are discussed in terms of the differences between treatment conditions, potential advances in the field of marital therapy, and recommendations for further inquiry.
