The marriage and relationship-building programs developed for this purpose, using classical methods, have been shown to have a number of benefits, but they have been widely criticized by researchers studying this topic: a new approach, the practical psychoeducation method called Rebuild-Relationship Building Dance®, which uses ballroom dancing as a tool to strengthen relationships, can be an answer to most of the criticism. The aim of the present research is to examine the effectiveness of the method using quantitative methods. The two-year survey involved partners preparing for their wedding. The study group (N = 64) completed a test battery measuring several variables of the relationship (BFI, RAS, DCI, FACES IV/communication, PSI, RSES, PAIR) three times and the control group (N = 38) twice. Statistical analysis confirmed the beneficial effects of the Rebuild® method on relationships in terms of self-esteem, relationship satisfaction, communication, conflict management, intimacy, sexuality, and caring for the partner, while there was no change between the results of the tests administered at two different time points without relationship intervention; moreover, deterioration in several variables (sexuality, communication, relationship satisfaction) was seen during the 8 months observed. In light of the results, the method offers a new, practical alternative in relationship prevention and can be complementary to classical therapeutic methodsVisok delež ločitev po vsem svetu opozarja na potrebo po krepitvi in ohranjanju kakovosti partnerskih odnosov in zakonskih zvez, vendar v terapiji težavo pogosto povzroča to, da partnerja pomoč ob težavah pričneta iskati prepozno. Zato je pomembno pozornosti posvetiti tudi možnostim preventivnega dela v odnosih. Programi, namenjeni gradnji odnosa, ki so bili razviti v preventivne namene, imajo številne prednosti, a so jih raziskovalci pogosto kritizirali. Odgovor na kritike bi lahko bil tudi novo razvit pristop za praktično psihoedukacijo Rebuild-Relationship Building Dance®, ki za krepitev odnosov uporablja dvoranski ples. Cilj študije je raziskati učinkovitost metode s kvantitativnim pristopom. Dve leti trajajoča študija je vključevala partnerje, ki so se pripravljali na sklenitev zakonske zveze. Raziskovalna skupina (N = 64) je trikrat izpolnila sklop vprašalnikov o kakovosti partnerske zveze (BFI, RAS, DCI, FACES IV/komunikacija, PSI, RSES, PAIR), kontrolna skupina (N = 38) pa je te vprašalnike izpolnila dvakrat. Statistične analize so pod-prle pozitivne učinke metode na partnerske zveze na področjih samozavesti, zadovoljstva z odnosom, komunikacije, soočanja s konflikti, intimnosti, spolnosti in skrbi za partnera. Med rezultati testov kontrolne skupine v obeh časovnih točk ni bilo (pozitivne) razlike, v osmih mesecih pa je bilo moč opaziti celo poslabšanje pri nekaterih spremenljivkah (spolnost, komunikacija, zadovoljstvo z odnosom). Rezultati kaže-jo, da metoda predstavlja novo in praktično alternativo za preventivno dejavnost v partnerskih zvezah, ki lahko dopolnjuje klasične terapevtske metodeTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaDruštvo psihologov Slovenije
