Further development of a brief measure of marital satisfaction is reported. The Kansas Marital Satisfaction (KMS) Scale was administered to 106 mothers who participated in a pretest for a nutrition education program. In accordance with previous research, Cronbach alpha estimates of internal consistency reliability were, at .96 or greater, more than adequate; test-retest reliability of the scale was substantial, as indicated by an r of .71 over a 10-wk. interval. Non-significant to moderate correlations of scores on the scale with individual social desirability and with scores on subscales of the Family Environment Scale were found.
