Abstract

This study focused on self-effects and spouse-effects that impact marital satisfaction in sex role stereotypes, work-family conflict and work-family enrichment. 95 double-income couples participated in this study, and the paired T-Test and multiple regression analysis were conducted. The result of the study showed that sex role stereotypes, work-family conflict, and work-family enrichment are not significant differences in husband and wife, but a husbands was significantly higher than wife in marital satisfaction. In the next step, we considered variables affecting marital satisfaction, and found a significant difference between husband and wife. Work-family enrichment positively affected the husband's marital satisfaction, while the wife's satisfaction was positively affected by the husband's sex role stereotype and negatively affected by her work-family conflict. This study suggests that marriage enrichment programs, the education of husband and wife, and couple counseling should consider individual effects and spouse effects.

본 연구는 맞벌이 부부의 결혼만족에 대한 이해를 위해 부부 각각의 성역할 태도, 다중역할 수행에서의 갈등과 향상의 경험이 자신과 배우자에게 미치는 상호영향을 살펴보았다. 이를 위해 맞벌이 부부 95쌍, 총 190명을 대상으로 하여 대응표본 t검증과 중다회귀분석을 실시하였다. 먼저 맞벌이 부부의 성역할태도, 다중역할 경험 및 결혼만족도에 있어 부부 간 차이를 살펴본 결과, 성역할태도 및 다중역할 경험에 있어 부부 간의 유의한 차이는 없었으며, 결혼만족도에 있어 남편이 아내보다 유의하게 만족하는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 맞벌이 부부의 결혼만족도에 영향을 미치는 요인에 대한 상호영향을 살펴본 결과, 부부 간의 결혼만족도에 영향을 주는 변인에서 유의한 차이가 발견되었다. 남편의 경우 자신의 성역할태도, 자신의 다중역할 향상이 결혼생활의 만족도에 정적으로 유의한 영향을 주는 반면, 아내의 경우는 남편의 성역할태도가 결혼생활 만족에 있어 정적으로 영향을 미치며 아내 자신의 다중역할 갈등이 결혼생활의 만족도에 부적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 맞벌이 부부의 결혼만족에 관한 교육 및 프로그램에 있어 남편과 아내 각각의 영향과 상호간의 영향에 대한 고려가 필요함을 시사한다.
