Study Summary

This study will compare the effect of three different stress reduction intervention techniques compared to a non-intervention control group on the psychological and relationship functioning in 40 romantic couples. The current study will serve two purposes. Results will inform future efforts to develop effective brief stress reduction interventions for physically healthy couples and will inform future iterations of stress reduction-based intervention for cancer patients and their caregivers. The investigators hypothesize that couples in the three stress-reduction interventions will report greater relationship health and greater mindfulness after the intervention than couples in the non-intervention control group. The investigators also hypothesize that the stress-reduction groups will be most beneficial for individuals who report higher distress, indifferent relationship style, and insecure attachment at baseline.
