Book Description
Research has empirically demonstrated that intimacy is a crucial element when it comes to marriage and its success. And when we talk about the success of a marriage, we talk about marital satisfaction. However, few studies have examined how these two independent constructs are related to one another in terms of which type of intimacy predicts the highest level of marital satisfaction in Lebanese couples. The present study investigated the relationship between intimacy and marital satisfaction. Specifically, we examined whether emotional and sexual intimacy are the highest predictors of marital satisfaction compared to social, recreational, and intellectual intimacy, and how the length of marriage moderates this relationship between IV and DV. Participants were Lebanese married individuals who completed a demographic information sheet, the Personal Assessment of Intimacy in Relationships, and the Revised Dyadic Adjustment Scale. Data was analyzed through the use of multiple regression a ...

Alone Together
Author: Paul R. Amato
Publisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 0674020189
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
Based on two studies of marital quality in America twenty years apart, Alone Together shows that while the divorce rate has leveled off, spouses are spending less time together. The authors argue that marriage is an adaptable institution, and in accommodating the changes that have occurred in society, it has become a less cohesive, yet less confining arrangement.

The Future of Christian Marriage
Author: Mark Regnerus
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0190064951
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
Marriage has come a long way since biblical times. Women are no longer property, and practices like polygamy have long been rejected. The world is wealthier, healthier, and more able to find and form relationships than ever. So why are Christian congregations doing more burying than marrying today? Explanations for the recession in marriage range from the mathematical--more women in church than men--to the economic, and from the availability of sex to progressive politics. But perhaps marriage hasn't really changed at all. Instead, there is simply less interest in marriage in an era marked by technology, gender equality, and secularization. Mark Regnerus explores how today's Christians find a mate within a faith that esteems marriage but in a world that increasingly yawns at it. This book draws on in-depth interviews with nearly two hundred young-adult Christians from the United States, Mexico, Spain, Poland, Russia, Lebanon, and Nigeria, in order to understand the state of matrimony in global Christian circles today. Regnerus finds that marriage has become less of a foundation for a couple to build upon and more of a capstone. Meeting increasingly high expectations of marriage is difficult, though, in a free market whose logic reaches deep into the home today. The result is endemic uncertainty, slowing relationship maturation, and stalling marriage. But plenty of Christians innovate, resist, and wed, and this book argues that the future of marriage will be a religious one.

Divorce in Europe
Author: Dimitri Mortelmans
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030258386
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 369
Book Description
This open access book collects the major discussions in divorce research in Europe. It starts with an understanding of divorce trends. Why was divorce increasing so rapidly throughout the US and Europe and do we see signs of a turn? Do cohabitation breakups influence divorce trends or is there a renewed stability on the partner market? In terms of divorce risks, the book contains new insights on Eastern European countries. These post socialist countries have evolved dramatically since the fall of the Wall and at present they show the highest divorce figures in Europe. Also the influence of gender, and more specifically women’s education as a risk in divorce is examined cross nationally. The book also provides explanations for the negative gradient in female education effects on divorce. It devotes three separate parts to new insights in the post-divorce effects of the life course event by among others looking at consequences for adults and children but also taking the larger family network into account. As such the book is of interest to demographers, sociologists, psychologists, family therapists, NGOs, and politicians. “This wide-ranging volume details important trends in divorce in Europe that hold implications for understanding family dissolution causes and consequences throughout the world. Highly recommended for researchers and students everywhere.”
