[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] It is important to understand what works for whom and in which contexts in couple relationship education (CRE). This study examined investment in CRE (i.e., received dosage, active application of what they learn, and their motivation for enrolling), its outcomes, and its predictors. Using pre/post data from a sample of 768 couples who participated in CRE, a latent class analysis (LCA) was estimated to investigate within couple patterns of CRE investment. Further, auxiliary variable methods were used in conjunction with the LCA to examine outcomes and predictors of CRE investment. Four classes were found: one with both partners higher in CRE investment, one with females higher and males lower in investment, one with males higher and females lower in investment, and one with both partners lower in investment. Couples in the class with both partners higher on investment experienced greater improvement in satisfaction and friendship than the other three classes. Baseline commitment and distress interacted to predict membership in CRE investment classes. Implications for CRE research and practice are discussed.

The Relationship

Couple relationship education (CRE) is the provision of structured education intended to promote healthy couple relationships and prevent future relationship distress. CRE usually is brief, ranging in length from a single session (involving an assessment of the relationship with discussion of current strengths and challenges) to 12 to 14 hours of a skill-training curriculum. Research indicates that 10 or more hours of curriculum-based CRE produces short-term improvements in couple communication and relationship satisfaction; these findings have been well replicated. Though there is less research investigating the long-term effects of CRE, the available evidence suggests there is a benefit of CRE for couples at elevated risk of future relationship problems. Future research needs to further clarify which couples benefit from CRE, refine how CRE curriculum is tailored to address couples’ relationship needs, and enhance the reach of CRE to increase its community impact.
