Summary

This study analyzed the impact of a marriage education intervention called Prevention and Relationship Education Program (PREP) compared to a control group on a sample of 662 Active Duty Army couples. Although all couples showed increases in marital satisfaction and communication skills, specific results indicated that couples with a history of infidelity were most impacted by the PREP intervention as they had the greatest increases in marital satisfaction and communication skills.
