The Austin Marriage Project is a series of long-term research studies aimed at understanding how couples grow and change during their early years of marriage at the
University of Texas at Austin.
Couples who participate in our new study will be contacted five times over 2 and 1/2 years. Each of these contacts will be about seven months apart. For two of these contacts, couples will simply be asked to fill out a few questionnaires through the mail. For the remaining three contacts, couples will be asked to come to our research labs on campus (we pay for parking!) and be interviewed by our staff. For their time, couples can receive up to $445 for participating!
