Description
Summary:Studies have shown that marital dissatis factionis correlated with a broadet of personal and interpersonal issues and problems. So, interventional proceedings have designed and evaluated mainly based on the results of such studies. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effectiveness of “pattern of couple’s dialogue with third position/person” training to reduce marital dissatisfaction. A sample of 28 couples (56 subjects) were selected regarding their main complain, diagnostic in terview and marital satisfaction question naire (ENRICH) scores and were assigned in control and experimental groups randomly. The subjects on experimental group participated in couple’s dialogue with third position\person program in 8 weekly sessions. Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) showed that although the linear combinations of dimensions of marital satis  faction differentiated the levels of groups, the three components of marital communication, family and friends and marriage and children received more statistical power than other six components. Accordingly, we can consider that correction of the pattern of couple’s dialogue via modification of cognitive distortions and emotional control and regulation can sign ificantly in crease the level of marital satis faction.
