Book Description
Marital satisfaction is paramount to a loving and long-lasting married life. The absence of marital satisfaction can lead to poor health, relational stress, and, eventually, divorce. This predictive, correlational study sought to research the relationship between the adoption of a position of rightness, the practice of extrinsic religiosity, and how these factors influence the levels of marital satisfaction among Christian spouses in the United States of America. The researcher used the Brief Version of the Religious Orientation Scale- Revised (ROS-R) to assess the level of intrinsic and extrinsic religious activity of the sample population. To measure the independent variable of their adherence to relational rightness, the researcher used the Revised Sense of Relational Entitlement the community (SRE-R). For the dependent variable of marital satisfaction, the researcher used the Locke-Wallace Marital Assessment Test (LWMAT). Three findings emerged from the study with practical implications for clergy, counselors, and couples: the theme of “false friends”, “religious amplification”, and “one size fits half”. The study concludes that an inflated sense of relational entitlement and extrinsic religiosity negatively impact the marital satisfaction of married Christian couples in the United States.

Book Description
Abstract: Previous research has consistently documented a positive relationship between religion and marital satisfaction. However, these studies often relied upon one construct of religion. Using data from the Marriage and Relationship Study (MARS), a nationally representative dataset of middle to low income couples, this study performs OLS regression analysis to investigate the effects of three constructs of religiosity--personal religious experience, religious homogamy, and joint religious activity--on marital satisfaction to determine which of these measures best accounts for marital satisfaction. The results reveal that joint religious activity is the only significant indicator of marital satisfaction, suggesting that the integrative properties of religion matter most for marital satisfaction. In other words, religion has the greatest positive impact on marriage when a couple practices their faith together. Future research should continue using measures of religion that tap into the integration of religion into marriage when studying the relationship between religion and marital quality.
