Abstract
Aim: One of the most important factors influencing the stability and growth of family is marital adjustment. Marital adjustment refers to a situation in which couples often are concerned about each other’s welfare and satisfaction, which this process is established during the couples' life. Current research is aimed at studying the effect of relationship enhancement program training on increasing women' marital adjustment for women under the support of Imam Khomeyni Foundation. For this purpose, an experimental design with a pretest-posttest and control group was used. Among women volunteered to participate in the sessions, 40 individuals were chosen and randomly assigned into two experimental and control groups. The experimental group received relationship enhancement program training during six 90-minute sessions, while the control group received no training. Participants from both groups completed Spanier' marital adjustment questionnaire. Results from analysis of covariance and independent samples t-test showed that group relationship enhancement program training sessions significantly increased marital adjustment and its dimensions (satisfaction, cohesion, consolation and affection expression).

Methods: The current study was an experimental ABA single-subject design investigation. The statistical population consisted of all couples who had attended counseling centers in city of Bojnord (Iran) during 2021. From this population, three couples who had met the inclusion criteria were purposefully selected. The Emotional Abuse Scale (EAS) was used to collect data in three stages (baseline, intervention, and follow-up). The intervention consisted of the emotional couple therapy training (hold me tight) that was administered in eight 120-minute sessions for each of the 3 pair of couples. Data analysis primarily included visual analyses, such as level, trend, and variability at three stages of baseline, intervention, and follow-up, both as within-condition, and between-condition layers. Findings: Results showed that the emotional couple therapy training (Hold Me Tight) is effective in reducing emotional abuse.

Abstract
Aim: Individuals employ various coping strategies when facing stressful conditions. Effective coping strategies can reduce the impact of stressors and prevent the short- and long-term consequences of stress. The present study aimed to identify dyadic coping strategies among nurses working in intensive care units for patients with acute respiratory conditions. ▌Methods: This study was conducted using a qualitative approach and a descriptive phenomenological method. The participants consisted of 10 nurses working in the intensive care unit for patients with acute respiratory conditions at Rasoul Akram Hospital in Kalaleh County, Iran, in 2022, who were selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using semi-structured interviews, and data analysis was carried out using the Colaizzi method. ▌Findings: Data analysis led to the extraction of 136 initial codes. Based on semantic similarity, these codes were categorized into 33 sub-themes, which were subsequently grouped into six main themes, including: supportive and constructive behaviors; maintaining and strengthening attachment-oriented bonds; caring behaviors; incorporating enjoyable activities into daily life; providing appropriate conditions for meeting physiological needs; and spiritual support. ▌Conclusion: Participants’ accounts indicated that spouses’ spiritual support, attachment-oriented behaviors, and supportive actions played an effective role in maintaining and enhancing nurses’ morale during multiple work shifts. In addition, spouses’ caring and health-related behaviors contributed to preventing nurses’ infection with acute respiratory diseases and to creating a calm and appropriate environment for rest and recovery from fatigue. The themes identified in this study can be used in the design and implementation of preventive and intervention programs for managing stressful situations.
