Religiosity, Socioeconomic Rewards, and Family Development: Predictors of Marital Adjustment

Abstract
The predictive effects of religiosity, socioeconomic rewards, and family development characteristics on marital adjustment were examined. Two-hundred eight couples from eight Protestant churches responded to a questionnaire containing measures of each research area. Religiosity was found to be the most predictive variable, even when controlling for social desirability. The results are discussed in terms of implications for theories of family functioning.
