Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to examine a) whether wife's depression and Hwa-Byung (HB) would predict husband's depression and HB and b) whether husband's marital satisfaction would moderate the relationship between wife's and husband's depression and HB. Results showed that wife's depression was significantly associated with husband's depression, and wife's HB was significantly associated with husband's HB. However, wife's depression was not a significant predictor of husband's HB, whereas wife's HB was not a significant predictor of husband's depression. This particular finding might reflect that depression and HB are related, yet distinct disorders. Lastly, husband's marital satisfaction was found to buffer the negative effect of wife's HB on husband's HB.
