Abstract	This study through a pretest-posttest, control group experimental design with a 3x2x2 factorial matrix examines the effects of communication and conflict management skills in enhancing the interpersonal relationships of Seventh-day Adventist couples in Lagos, Nigeria. Simple random sampling technique was used to select three parishes of the Seventh-Day Adventist Church in Lagos. The participants were randomly assigned to treatment and control groups. Participants in the two treatment groups were exposed to eight weeks of communication and conflict management skills training. Two instruments were used for data collation; thus, Interpersonal Relationship Scale (IRS) and Introversion-Extroversion Indicator Scale. Data were analysed using Analysis of Covariance. The study observes a significant main effect of treatment on couples interpersonal relationship. Likewise, there was no significant main effect of personality on the interpersonal relationship among couples. Therefore, counselling/psychological intervention programmes should be put in place to help married couple in conflict to self-rediscover their objective of getting married at the first instance and improve on their interpersonal relationship competence as to adjust to the demands of marriage. This would help them develop the potentials to establish and sustain good marital interpersonal relationship.
