Abstract

Background and Aim: In couples experiencing marital conflicts, the enhancement of affective capital and improvement of communication quality, through increasing empathy, trust, and effective interaction, play a fundamental role in reducing anxiety, enhancing psychological adaptability, and strengthening the relationship; these factors are essential for improving mental health and emotional balance. The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of two psychological training interventions, training based on the Theory of Healthy Humanity and existential training based on Iranian Islamic culture, on the affective capital and communication quality of disagreeable couples. Methods: The study employed a quasi-experimental design with pre-test, post-test, and follow-up phases, including a control group. The statistical population comprised all disagreeable couples seeking family counseling in Isfahan in the year 1403 (Iranian calendar). A sample of 75 couples (150 individuals) was purposefully selected and then randomly assigned to three groups (each experimental group containing 25 individuals and a control group with 25 individuals). The research instruments included the Affective Capital Questionnaire by Golparvar (2016) and the Couples’ Communication Quality Questionnaire by Khoshkam (2006), both demonstrated acceptable internal consistency as confirmed by Cronbach’s alpha. The training interventions were delivered over eight weekly sessions. Results: Results from repeated measures analysis of variance and Bonferroni post-hoc tests indicated that both interventions significantly improved the affective capital and communication quality among couples; however, the training based on the Theory of Healthy Humanity proved to be more effective (P<0.01). Conclusion: The findings underscore the importance of culturally-rooted psychological interventions in enhancing marital quality. It is recommended that such training programs be integrated into family counseling initiatives.
