چکیده

هدف پژوهش حاضر مقایسه اثربخشی زوج درمانی مبتنی بر تصویرسازی ارتباطی و زوج درمانی به روش گاتمن بر فضیلت‌های زناشویی زوجین دارای تعارض زناشویی بود. روش پژوهش نیمه‌آزمایشی ﺑﺎ ﻃﺮح ﭘﻴﺶآزﻣﻮن-ﭘﺲآزﻣﻮن و ﮔـﺮوه کنترل با دوره پیگیری سه ماهه بود. جامعه آماری پژوهش شامل زوجین مراجعه‌کننده به مرکز مشاوره عرفان شهر تهران در سال 1403 بود. حجم نمونه شامل 30 زوج (هر گروه 10 زوج/ 20 نفر) بود که به روش نمونه‌گیری دردسترس انتخاب و به صورت تصادفی در سه گروه جای‌گذاری شدند. ابزارهای پژوهش شامل پروفایل فضیلت‌های زناشویی (MVP) فاوست و همکاران (2013) و پرسشنامه تجدیدنظر شده تعارضات زناشویی (MCQ-R) ثنایی (1387) بود. گروه آزمایش اول مداخله تصویرسازی ارتباطی را در 8 جلسه 90 دقیقه‌ای و گروه آزمایش دوم مداخله زوج درمانی گاتمن را در 9 جلسه 90 دقیقه‌ای دریافت کردند. برای تحلیل داده‌ها از تحلیل واریاتس اندازه‌گیری مکرر و نرم‌افزار SPSS نسخه 25 و سطح معناداری 0/05 استفاده شد. نتایج نشان داد که مداخله تصویرسازی ارتباطی بر فضیلت‌های زناشویی و مولفه‌های آن (درک کردن، انصاف، بخشش، فداکاری و تحسین) و مداخله گاتمن بر نمره کل و سه مولفه فضیلت‌های زناشویی (تحسین، فداکاری و بخشش) اثربخشی معناداری دارد (0/05>p). همچنین مداخله تصویرسازی ارتباطی در مقایسه با روش گاتمن بر درک کردن اثربخشی بیشتری نشان داد (0/05>p). طبق نتایج هر دو مداخله پژوهش برای بهبود فضیلت‌های زناشویی در زوجین دچار تعارض زناشویی از کارایی معناداری برخوردار هستند، اما زوج درمانی مبتنی بر تصویرسازی ارتباطی بر مولفه‌های بیشتری از فضیلت‌های زناشویی اثربخشی معنادار دارد.

چکیده [English]

The purpose of the present study was to compare the effectiveness of imago relationship therapy and couple therapy using the Gottman method on the marital virtues in couples with marital conflict. The research method was a quasi-experimental with a pretest-posttest design and a control group with a three-month follow-up. The statistical population of the study included couples referring to the Erfan Counseling Center in Tehran in 2024. The sample consisted of 30 couples who were selected through convenience sampling and randomly assigned to three groups (10 couples per group). The study used the Marital Virtues Profile (MVP; Fawcett et al., 2013) and the Revised Marital Conflict Questionnaire (MCQ-R; Sanai, 2017). The first experimental group received imago relationship therapy in eight 90-minute sessions, whereas the second experimental group received Gottman therapy in nine 90-minute sessions. For data analysis, repeated measurement variance analysis, SPSS version 25, and significance level of 0.05 was used. The results showed that the relation Imago intervention had a significant effect on the marital virtue and its components (understanding, fairness, forgiveness, sacrifice and admiration) and Guttman's method on total score and three components of marital virtue (admiration, sacrifice, forgiveness). Also, relation Imago intervention in comparison with Guttman's method showed more effectiveness (p < 0.05). According to the results, both interventions were significantly effective in improving marital virtues among couples with marital conflict, but relation Imago had a significant effect on a greater number of components of marital virtues.
