Abstract	Relationship education (RE) has been linked to several short- and long-term benefits; however, less is known about its effects on adolescents' overarching life-goals. This study utilized a multi-method approach to examine whether RE was linked to increases in the relative importance of intrinsic, as opposed to extrinsic, life-goals. Results demonstrated a statistically significant increase from pretest to posttest in the relative importance of intrinsic life-goals. Qualitative analysis identified themes relevant to intrinsic life-goals including differentiating between needs and wants and an increased focus on interpersonal functioning. Overall, results suggest RE may influence students' life-goals in beneficial ways. (As Provided).
