مشاوره

The present study aimed to examine the effectiveness of the Couple Bubble Model on We‑ness, empathy, an‎d marital self‑regulation. In terms of purpose, the study was applied, an‎d in terms of design, it was quasi‑experimental with a pretest–posttest an‎d a control group. The statistical population consisted of married couples residing in Shahin Shahr in 2024 (1403 in the Persian calendar) an‎d within the first five years of marriage. The sample included 16 couples (8 experimental an‎d 8 control), selec‎ted through convenience sampling an‎d ran‎domly assigned. The experimental group attended eight 4‑hour training sessions on the Couple Bubble Model, while the control group received no intervention. Accordingly, the Couple Bubble Model was developed as a localized, closed package an‎d used to measure its effectiveness. Data collection tools comprised the We‑ness in Marital Relationships Questionnaire, the Basic Empathy Scale, the Behavioral Self‑Regulation for Effective Relationships questionnaire, an‎d the Marital Conflicts Questionnaire. Data were analyzed through Multivariate Analysis of Covariance (MANCOVA) in SPSS‑26. Results indicated that the training significantly improved the study variables. In We‑ness, effects for Relationship Orientation, Couple Identity, an‎d Couple Bond were 24%, 21%, an‎d 17%, respectively, with the largest impact in Relationship Orientation. In empathy, Affective an‎d Cognitive Empathy increased by 40% an‎d 38%, while couple‑mean scores rose to 57% an‎d 62%. In marital self‑regulation, Relationship Self‑Regulation increased (45% individual analysis, 56% couple analysis) an‎d Relational Activity decreased (24% individual analysis, 35% couple analysis), indicating improvement. Overall, the Couple Bubble Model proved particularly effective in fostering empathy an‎d interaction among couples an‎d can serve as an efficient approach to enriching marital relationships.
