Abstract :This study, which investigates the impact of premarital education programs on marital adjustment in Türkiye, was conducted using a qualitative research method. Within the scope of the research, interviews were conducted with 28 individuals who had participated in premarital education sessions organized by the Ministry of Family and Social Services in various official institutions. To ensure triangulation, additional interviews were carried out with the educators who delivered the training as well as with the designers who developed the program. The study examines marital adjustment in terms of individuals’ satisfaction and fulfillment within their relationships and discusses the potential for sustaining a positive level of adjustment through education. Findings indicate that these premarital education programs have a positive influence on marital adjustment. However, the results also highlight the need for improvements in program content, implementation, cultural relevance, and accessibility. By offering a multidimensional evaluation of premarital education both through a review of global literature and within the specific context of Türkiye, this study aims to contribute to the academic literature and inform policymakers.
