There were a significant difference in the score of sexual life satisfaction and marital satisfaction according to age, educational level, marital duration, number of child, type of job, purpose of working, monthly family income, menopause and hypertension. The marital satisfaction was significantly correlated with sexual life satisfaction (r=0.468, p＜0.001), stress (r=-0.345, p＜0.001), depression (r=-0.350, p＜0.001), and job satisfaction(r=0.271, p＜0.001). The stepwise multiple regression analysis showed that sexual life satisfaction (adjusted R2=0.216) strongly predicted the marital satisfaction.
