The ability to build and maintain satisfactory marital relationships has been identified in the literature as an essential need for mental and psychosocial health. However, the study of educational programs that help couples improve their relationships is still insipid in Brazil. The present study proposes to evaluate an intervention for couples based on online psychoeducation in conflict resolution and levels of marital satisfaction. An effectiveness study was carried out in 163 adults living together for at least six months. The participants filled the Conflict Resolution Behavior Questionnaire, the Familiogram and the Marital Satisfaction Scale. The intervention consisted of an asynchronous psychoeducational consisting of videos and homework assignments. An increase in the quality of the relationship was found: decreased conflict and increased affection and increased satisfaction of organizational and structural aspects for men and women. The results indicated that asynchronous online programs based on psychoeducation can be an alternative intervention for couples with marital problems, especially those who have difficulties attending face-to-face sessions.
