After the Honeymoon: The Evolution of Problem Issues in Utah LDS Marriages
The main objective of this study was to extend previous research in the area of longitudinal marital satisfaction by examining how marital issues, including decision-making, activities, affection, conflict, financial matters, stability, and values, changed over the first 5 years of marriage for 242 Utah, Latter-Day-Saint individuals. In addition, this study examined whether change occurs differently for husbands versus wives and for at-risk indiv…
Father Involvement, Father-Child Relationship Quality, and Satisfaction With Family Work: Actor and Partner Influences on Marital Quality
Using family systems theory and an actor-partner interdependence model, we examine the influence of the division of family work (including fathers' participation in child rearing) on father-child relationship quality, satisfaction with the family work division, and marital quality. The strongest effect on both spouses' marital quality is wives' perception of father-child relationship quality. Following this, wives' perceptions of father participa…
Marital Quality, Context, and Interaction: A Comparison of Those Currently Receiving Government Assistance with Those Who Are Not
In this study the marital quality of respondents who were currently receiving government assistance was compared with those who were not. Contextual variables (e.g., gender, age, age at first marriage, religiosity, education, etc.) and interactional variables (i.e., escalating negativity, criticism, negative interpretation, withdrawal) were measured as potential correlates with marital quality. Results indicated that those who received government…
Religiosity, Homogamy, and Marital Adjustment: An Examination of Newlyweds in First Marriages and Remarriages
This article explores the relationship between religiosity, denominational homogamy, religiosity homogamy, and marital adjustment. Using a statewide sample of spouses in first marriages ( N = 1,394) and remarriages ( N = 601), the authors find that within-group differences in religiosity, denominational homogamy, and religiosity homogamy are not as prevalent for spouses in remarriages. Overall, husbands and wives in first marriages who are very r…
Marital Commitment and Religiosity in a Religiously Homogenous Population
Statewide surveys of marriage and divorce in Oklahoma and Utah point to the need to better understand the importance of commitment to marriage in a religiously homogenous population. The components of commitment—to their spouse, to marriage as an institution, and constraints to stay in the relationship—were explored in relation to religious values and attendance in an organized religion. Results indicate significant associations between these var…
After “I Do”: The Newlywed Transition
Marital satisfaction, marital adjustment, and problem areas experienced during the early months of marriage were examined using a sample of 1,010 newlywed husbands and wives. Results revealed that between 8% and 14% percent of newlyweds already scored in the distressed range on measures of marital satisfaction and adjustment, respectively. For both husbands and wives, the most problematic areas in the early months of marriage were balancing emplo…
Parenting: Have We Arrived? Or Do We Continue the Journey
This article challenges the premise that either the content or process of parenting education is fully developed. The authors argue that important developments in educating children and in educating parents challenge any sense of arrival. It is possible that the new answers discovered in recent years only challenge us to ask better questions about how to improve parent effectiveness
