Abstract

Divorce education classes are common across the United States, and results suggest they are generally effective. No studies, however, have examined the effectiveness of an online version of a divorce education course. Using data from a sample of 778 divorced and separated parents who participated in the Focus on Kids (FOK) divorce education class in person, and 517 participants who completed the online version of the course, we examine program effectiveness by method of delivery. Results from retrospective pre–post surveys indicate there are minimal differences in understanding, knowledge, and anticipated behavior change across delivery method. Overall, both groups of parents indicated the FOK program was helpful and worthwhile, and anticipated making positive changes in their coparenting behaviors as a result.
