Abstract
This quasi-experimental study investigated the effects of a telehealth Marriage Checkup on improvement of marital quality among 98 newly married couples. We assigned couples to either an intervention) telehealth Marriage Checkup program (or a control group.The participants completed the Quality of Marriage Index (QMI), and the NEO Five-Factor Inventory (NEO-FFI) at baseline, post-intervention, and three-month follow-up. The telehealth Marriage Checkup significantly increased marital satisfaction and this effect persisted at the three-month follow-up. Our study demonstrates the importance of early preventive interventions for enhancing and maintaining marital satisfaction in the initial stages of marriage.
