Muhtasari	The Dyadic Adjustment Scale is the most widely used self-report instrument for measuring the quality of relationships in married or cohabiting couples. Developed by Graham Spanier in 1976, it captures four fundamental dimensions of relationship functioning: consensus (agreement on key domains), satisfaction (contentment in the partnership), cohesion (togetherness and shared activities), and affectional expression (intimacy and passion). The DAS has become a gold standard in couple therapy research, relationship satisfaction studies, and marital intervention trials.	The ENRICH (Enriching Relationships: Issues, Communication, Happiness) program is a comprehensive couple assessment and enrichment system developed by David Olson that includes multiple relationship assessment tools. The ENRICH Marital Satisfaction Scale is a subset of the full ENRICH Couple Inventory and measures couple satisfaction across key relationship domains. Widely used in premarital counseling, relationship enrichment programs, and couple therapy, the ENRICH approach assesses both relationship strengths and areas for improvement, positioning it as both diagnostic and developmentally focused.
