Abstract
This study investigates the relationship between religious orientation and marital satisfaction among married women who live in Najafabad and Fuladshahr, Isfahan, Iran. 757 women (381 respondents in Najafabad and 376 in Fuladshahr) married for at least 3 years answered both itemized questions about their religious orientations and their marital satisfaction. Results revealed that participants with higher levels of religious orientation reported higher levels of marital satisfaction. The present study sheds light on several aspects of family life cycle theory. These results suggest that religious orientation is linked, in theoretically predictable ways, to marital satisfaction.
