The purpose of this study is to develop a Marriage Enrichment Program that can be applied to the actual lives of Korean families and couples, as well as adopted in family welfare programs. For this study, a quasi-experimental group design was employed and pre- and post- tests on Internal-External Control, Couple Communication, and Marital Satisfaction were conducted. Experimental participants consisted of six volunteer couples who responded to an advertisement by the Chonbuk Family Counseling Center printed in a daily newspaper. The experimental group received two hours of education on marital relationship enhancement every week for eight weeks. The control group received no such treatment. The effectiveness of the education was measured by Wilcox matched pair test, using a SAS program, as well as by the self-report of the participants. The results show that there was statistically significant improvement for the experimental group in all three areas of marriage-- internal control, couple communication, and marital satisfaction. In addition, the participants'evaluations were generally positive about the program. The participants reported that it was most helpful to learn through the educational program that individuals differ in basic needs and that they should not force personal beliefs on others.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to analyze how couples relationship education (CRE) programs in Korean scholarly journals have been developed since they first appeared in 1994. Method: We selected articles that were published in journals related to human ecology and that included information about how the authors developed CRE programs (premarital education, marriage education). Using coding schemes based on the theoretical frameworks of CRE, we quantitatively coded programs in four specific areas: (a) overall characteristics, (b) program planning, (c) program construction and implementation, and (d) program evaluation. Results: Although CRE programs have increased and evolved since the 1990s, the literature has been limited on testing long-term program efficacy, developing dissemination plans, and applying theories to program design. In terms of program participants and content, most programs had similar themes despite their differences in the target audience. We also found that few programs have been provided for diverse couples. As for evaluation, pre- and post-testing was the most common method of efficacy test. Conclusion: Our findings suggest that family researchers and practitioners develop more elaborate and systematic programs to advance CRE in Korea as a core topic of family life education and to provide evidence-informed practice.

본 연구는 맞벌이 부부의 결혼만족에 대한 이해를 위해 부부 각각의 성역할 태도, 다중역할 수행에서의 갈등과 향상의 경험이 자신과 배우자에게 미치는 상호영향을 살펴보았다. 이를 위해 맞벌이 부부 95쌍, 총 190명을 대상으로 하여 대응표본 t검증과 중다회귀분석을 실시하였다. 먼저 맞벌이 부부의 성역할태도, 다중역할 경험 및 결혼만족도에 있어 부부 간 차이를 살펴본 결과, 성역할태도 및 다중역할 경험에 있어 부부 간의 유의한 차이는 없었으며, 결혼만족도에 있어 남편이 아내보다 유의하게 만족하는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 맞벌이 부부의 결혼만족도에 영향을 미치는 요인에 대한 상호영향을 살펴본 결과, 부부 간의 결혼만족도에 영향을 주는 변인에서 유의한 차이가 발견되었다. 남편의 경우 자신의 성역할태도, 자신의 다중역할 향상이 결혼생활의 만족도에 정적으로 유의한 영향을 주는 반면, 아내의 경우는 남편의 성역할태도가 결혼생활 만족에 있어 정적으로 영향을 미치며 아내 자신의 다중역할 갈등이 결혼생활의 만족도에 부적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 맞벌이 부부의 결혼만족에 관한 교육 및 프로그램에 있어 남편과 아내 각각의 영향과 상호간의 영향에 대한 고려가 필요함을 시사한다.
