Introduction: The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of cognitive-behavioral couple therapy and analyze behavioral behavior on communication documents and differentiation of incompatible couples.
Method: The research design was quasi-experimental pre-test and post-test with a control group. The statistical population was incompatible couples who referred to counseling centers in Jiroft in 2021. From this population, based on entry and exit criteria and purposeful sampling, 60 couples were selected in two experimental groups and one control group. In each group, 20 couples (first experiment: cognitive-behavioral couple therapy), (second experiment: interaction behavior analysis) and the control group were randomly replaced. Scorne and Friedlander self-differentiation questionnaire, Bradbury and Fincham communication documents questionnaire and Spanier marital adjustment questionnaire were used to collect data. Data analysis was performed using multivariate analysis of covariance and LSD post hoc test.
Results: The results showed that cognitive-behavioral couple therapy and reciprocal behavior analysis have an effect on their differentiation and communication documents. Also, the results of post hoc test showed that cognitive-behavioral couple therapy has a greater effect on communication documents than the analysis of reciprocal behavior and reduces communication documents. The results also showed that the analysis of reciprocal behavior had a greater effect on differentiation than cognitive-behavioral couple therapy and increased differentiation in couples.
Conclusion: Therefore, attention to cognitive-behavioral couple therapy and analysis of reciprocal behavior has an important role in differentiation and communication documents and intervention for incompatible couples is recommended
