- Description
- Through the facilitation of semi-structured interviews, the primary aim of this study was to explore and describe couples’ experience of an imago getting the love you want (GTLYW) workshop and their perceptions of its long-term influence on relationship satisfaction three years post-workshop. in order to achieve this research aim, an interpretive paradigm, with a qualitative exploratory-descriptive approach and design, was selected. non-probability purposive sampling was utilised to select participants, and braun and clarke’s (2006) six-stage model of thematic analysis was employed to analyse transcripts, with the use of lincoln and guba’s (1985) model of trustworthiness to verify the findings. the findings indicate that the GTLYW workshop does produce positive results that include long-term improvements in romantic relationships. main themes that emerged include: participants’ experience of the workshop, participants’ description of the influence of the workshop, influence on other relationships, and perceived long-term impact.
