摘要
在COVID-19封锁或其他国家紧急情况期间,灵活分娩婚姻教育(ME)与传统替代方案相比,在接触夫妇方面具有许多优势。为了增加对灵活交付ME的研究,本探索性研究在COVID-19政府限制导致居家封锁超过2个月的情况下,评估了一门由经验验证的婚姻课程改编的在线课程(四份爱的礼物课程,[FGL])。使用并行多基线单例实验设计,居住在菲律宾的三对痛苦的夫妇在经历家庭封锁的7周内完成了7次在线课程。数据的可视化分析表明,所有三对夫妇都对干预反应积极。每对夫妇的Tau-U和SMDall分析对婚姻调整措施的影响大小不等(加权平均Tau-U = 0.50, p < 0.05;BC-SMD = 0.34)和浪漫爱情(加权平均Tau-U = 0.52, p < 0.01;BC-SMD = 0.31),三对夫妇中有一对的增加达到临床和统计学意义。此外,没有人员流失。这项初步研究的结果表明,FGL作为一种灵活交付的ME的在线适应可以缓解婚姻衰退,特别是在传统交付ME不可用和预测婚姻衰退的灾难时期。建议进一步研究该项目和其他在线ME项目,以扩大灵活交付ME领域的有限研究。
Online Marriage Education During COVID-19 Home Lockdown: A Multiple-Baseline Single-Case Experimental Design
Flexible-delivery marriage education (ME) has many advantages over traditional alternatives in reaching couples during the time of COVID-19 lockdown or other national emergencies. In an effort to add to the research of flexible-delivery ME, this exploratory study evaluated an online class adapted from an empirically-validated, marriage curriculum (Four Gifts of Love Class, [FGL]) under home lockdown conditions lasting over 2 months caused by COVID-19 government restrictions. Using a concurrent multiple-baseline single-case experimental design, three distressed couples residing in the Philippines completed seven online lessons over 7 weeks while experiencing home lockdown. Visual analysis of the data suggested that all three couples responded positively to the intervention. The Tau-U and SMDall analyses for each couple ranged from a small to large effect size on measures of marital adjustment (weighted average Tau-U = .50, p < .05; BC-SMD = 0.34) and romantic love (weighted average Tau-U = .52, p < .01; BC-SMD = 0.31), with increases reaching clinical and statistical significance for one couple out of the three. In addition, there was no attrition. The promising results from this preliminary study suggested that the online adaptation of FGL as a flexible-delivery ME could mitigate marital decline, especially during times of calamity when traditional-delivery ME is unavailable and marital decline is predicted. Further study of this program and other online ME programs are recommended to expand the limited research in this area of flexible-delivery ME.
