Background and Aims: Culmination of numerous problems, disappointment of spouse, and mental-emotional distance between couples leads to couple burnout and undesirable relationships among couples. In the present study, the effectiveness of cognitive-behavioral group couple therapy (CBGCT) on reducing couple burnout and improving marital quality of couples was investigated.
Material and Methods: The present study was a semi-experimental one which used a pretest-posttest with control group design. The research population included all the couples referring to Rastin counseling and psychological services center of Gorgan city in the spring of 2018. Using available sampling method, 12 couples were selected which were then assigned into two groups of experiment and control. Data gathering was conducted by using the Paynz Couple Burnout Measure (1996) and The Golombok-Rust inventory of marital state (GRIMS) (1998). After completing the pretest by the subjects of both groups, cognitive-behavioral group couples therapy was provided for the experiment group in ten 120-minute sessions while the control group received no intervention. The data were analyzed through multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA) in SPSS v20.
Results: Results showed that, after the cognitive-behavioral group couples therapy, the level of couple burnout in the couples of the experiment group had significantly reduced and the intervention had improved their marital quality (P < 0.01).
Conclusion: Cognitive-behavioral group couple therapy reduced couple burnout and enhanced marital quality of couples.
