ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying whether practicing mindfulness can improve the quality of romantic relationships. Couples who have been living together for at least two years can participate, as long as both partners speak English fluently, don’t already practice mindfulness regularly, and have access to a smartphone with internet. The trial will randomly assign couples to either a mindfulness program or a control group, where they will complete activities on their smartphones for 14 days.

After the 14 days, couples will visit a lab to share their experiences and provide information about their relationship quality. This is a great opportunity for couples looking to strengthen their relationship through mindfulness techniques, and the trial is currently recruiting participants.
