Summary

This study looks at whether learning about well-being can improve how romantic partners think and feel. About 2,000 couples with mild depression symptoms will take online surveys about their emotions and relationship satisfaction. The goal is to see if gaining knowledge about well-being helps individuals and their relationships.
