|
|
Objectives: This study explored the mediating effects of self-differentiation and self-efficacy on irrational beliefs and marital satisfaction.
Method: Data from a sample of 532 married men and women living in the Seoul Metropolitan areawere analyzed with SPSS 22.0 and AMOS 21.0.
Results: Irrational beliefs of marital relations are negatively correlated with self-differentiation, self-efficacy and marital satisfaction, and they have an indirect effect on marital satisfaction through self-differentiation and self-efficacy. That is, irrational beliefs directly affect self-differentiation, which, in turn, influences marital satisfaction by mediating self-efficacy.
Conclusions: The results of this study can enhance mutual understanding between couples. The authors proposed future studies.
