Abstract: This study investigated the effectiveness of integrated transcendental group therapy (ITGT) on marital satisfaction. A single-case quasi-experimental AB design was utilized to assess the impact of the intervention on three couples. Marital satisfaction was measured using the Afrooz Marital Satisfaction Scale (AMSS) before and after eight weeks of ITGT. Results indicated a significant increase in marital satisfaction for both husbands and wives, despite only the wives participating in the therapy. These findings suggest that ITGT is a promising treatment for improving marital relationships. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
