Commitment is one of the critical predictors of individuals' willingness to stay in the marriage and a determinant factor regarding its time and quality. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of couple therapy with Imago-therapy and Feldman's integrated approach on couples' marital commitment in Tehran. Materials and Methods: This research was a semi-experimental study with a pretest and posttest design and a follow up with the control group. The statistical population of this study included all of the conflicted couples who referred to the Office of Women's Affair of the Post Bank of the 6th District Municipality and the Psychology Clinic of the District 22 of Tehran Municipality in 2018. Thirty couples among them divided into an experimental group (each group of 15 couples) and control group (15 couples). For this purpose, Barati and Sanei's marital conflicts questionnaire (1998) and Adams & Jones (1997) marital commitment questionnaire were used to collect data.

Address: Young Researchers and Elite Club, Birjand Branch, Islamic Azad University, Birjand, Iran. Tel: +98 (912) 0252104 E-mail: t.mohammad2@gmail.com Psychotherapy endows a sense of control in patients gripped with emotional conflicts; it allows them to handle their reflexes and regain composure through conscious and behavioral alterations. These transformational changes can be brought about by improving their listening skills, observational capacities, creating awareness, and making them more attentive and intervening. Conventional psychotherapy calls for one-to-one sessions during treatment. Considering the increased access to Information Technology (IT) in our daily living, the idea of replacement of human interaction by IT tools appeared. The specialized tools and techniques are employed through the course of therapy, which not only alters but also accentuates their cognitive and practical understanding. The idea of amalgamating these two broad ambits, the complexities of psychology and dynamism of Artificial Intelligence (AI), has gained momentum in recent years. The reluctance of a few psychologists in the past regarding inculcating expert systems into routine practice, because of employment-related insecurities or being swapped by a computer, led to the underutilization of the latent competence of using IT. Primarily, human behavior itself cannot be copied in totality by technology, and AI has a great deal to cover in this regards, but researchers are doing their best to deliver on these premises. Apart from this patient, resistance to this encroachment of technology should be critically investigated for gaining acceptance. This review focuses on how machine intelligence can enhance self-awareness through computer-implemented psychotherapeutic tools.
