Abstract
Although previous research supports the existence of a relationship between religiosity and marital adjustment, relatively little is known about the relationship among various dimensions of the two variables. In this study, data from a sample of 190 married couples were analyzed to isolate aspects of religiosity that predicted each of four dimensions of marital adjustment. Religious ritual, experience, and, to a lesser extent, belief correlated significantly with the dimensions of marital adjustment, even when controlling for marital conventionality (social desirability). The consequential dimension correlated with marital adjustment for men, but not for women.
