Thus, 7 experts completed a feasibility questionnaire by reading the detailed protocol summary before starting the therapy sessions. In addition, the protocol therapist evaluated the protocol in terms of feasibility criteria at the end of each session, and each of the 6 people (3 couples) under treatment also presented their views on the feasibility criteria of this protocol at the end of the treatment.
Findings: The experts evaluated the feasibility of the program from the dimensions of the appropriate situation and necessity. Experts considered the feasibility of the program “much” in the areas of acceptability, practicality, adaptation, and expansion, and “moderate” feasible in the areas of demand, implementation, and integration, which means it required a more detailed evaluation. In the second stage performed during the course of developed couple-based cognitive behavioral therapy program, the therapist evaluated the feasibility of the program “much” in the areas of acceptability, demand, practicality, and adaptation, and “moderate” in the implementation.
