Background
The purpose of this
investigation is to determine the efficacy of emotionally focused couples
therapy (EFT-C) on enhancement of marital adjustment in infertile couples.
Materials and Methods
This was a semi-experimental
study with a pre- and post-test design. We selected 30 infertile couples (60
subjects) by purposive sampling. Couples were randomly assigned to two groups,
sample and control. Each group consisted of 15 couples who had marital
maladjustment and low sexual satisfaction. Couples answered the marital
adjustment and sexual satisfaction questionnaires at baseline after which the
sample group received 10 sessions of EFT-C.
Results
Results of pre-test and
post-test showed that EFT-C significantly impacted marital adjustment and
sexual satisfaction.
Conclusion
EFT-C had a significant
effect on enhancement of satisfaction, cohesion and affectional expression.
This approach impacted physical and emotional sexual satisfaction of infertile
couples.
