REY-ANACONA, César Armando et al. Preliminary evaluation of a program for unmarried couples that have presented abuse. Psychol. av. discip. [online]. 2014, vol.8, n.1, pp.55-66. ISSN 1900-2386.
The objective of this research was to conduct a preliminary evaluation of a treatment aimed at unmarried young couples who have had abuse in their relationship. The program included improving communication skills, empathy and anger management, among other components, under a behavior therapy perspective. A pretest-posttest one-group design was used, with the participation of four heterosexual couples between 17 and 22 years (X=20 years, DX=1.89 years). The effects were evaluated through the staxi ii, the Assertion Questionnaire in the Couple, a scale of attitudes toward intimate violence, a program satisfaction questionnaire, and a checklist of experiences of partner abuse. The results showed significant post-treatment decreases on the frequency of abuse, attitudes toward intimate violence, and anger as a state, and a good satisfaction with the program. Adjustments in the contents of the program for the achievement of a controlled clinical trial are proposed.
