20-30대의 커플관계교육 요구분석

The purpose of this study was to analyze the need for educational content and participation method targeting 20-30-year-olds for couple relationship education(CRE) to improve couple partnership. First of all the questionnaires were prepared to consist of a couple of relationship education areas and themes which are based on prior research, and a needs assessment was conducted targeting 254 people in their 20s and 30s. Based on Borich’s needs assessment model, the top priority in CRE was finding a solution for a conflict situation with other people; it also showed the need of understanding personality differences and communicate with each other. According to our analysis of the education needs in three areas, education needs for communication, marriage values, and prenatal education/ pregnancy/ childbirth/ postpartum depression prevention were the highest in each of the three areas. Moreover, the most requested education type of CRE was in regular education such as secondary and higher education (48.8%), the most requested place of education was at school (53.1%), and offline education (46.5%) was the most requested method of delivery. The results of this study can be used as data for developing a model or a program for effective couple relationship education, which reflects the recent rapid social change and the generational characteristics in their 20s and 30s.
