An Investigation of the Effectiveness of Psychological instructions Based on Islamic Traditions on the Couplesʹ Marital Satisfaction

The present paper aims at an investigation of the results obtained from teaching Islamic traditions on marital satisfaction of 20 spouses (10 couples) who referred to the consultation center of the Research Institute for Islamic Consultation in Qom, ready to receive these instructions. The research method was experimental with a control group, using pretest and post-test. The experimental group was composed of 20 couples with marital problems, who received the psychological instructions based on Islamic traditions and Quranic verses, and the control group was composed of 20 couples with marital problems but with no such instructions. After the diagnostic interview and the pre-test, each of the couples in the experimental group received these instructions individually or collectively in six sessions, with the post-test being conducted in 2 weeks after the end of the instructional sessions. A comparison of the two groups showed that the abovementioned psychological instructions are effective in improving the couplesʹ relations, and accordingly in their marital satisfaction. It also showed that the instructions have permanent effects (in the course of time) on the marital satisfaction of the couples. The results also showed no effects for sex on the efficiency of psychological instructions.
