Abstract

The purpose of this study was to develop, implement, and evaluate a marriage preparation program based on Gottman's theory of the Sound Marital House. Premarital activities were developed to correspond to each level of the Sound Marital House theory. A program involved five 2-hour sessions with six engaged couples. Each session was composed of activities for each individual couple and for the entire group. At the end of the educational intervention, the couples provided feedback on the program through semistructured interviews. The results of the summative evaluation indicated that the program provided participants with new perspectives, skills, and knowledge regarding their relationships.
