“…Participants’ reports of marital quality were measured using the Persian version of Dyadic Adjustment Scale (Sanai Zakir, 2000; DAS; Spanier, 2001). The DAS includes 32 items used to assess partners’ marital quality (e.g., Fişiloǧlu and Demir, 2000; Chiara et al, 2014; Bachem et al, 2018). Twenty-seven items are rated on a 6- point Likert scale (15 items: 0 = always disagree to 5 = always agree ; 12 items 0 = never to 5 = all the time ); two items are on a 5-point Likert scale (0 = never to 4 = everyday ); two items are yes/no type questions (0 = no 1 = yes ); and one is on a 7-point Likert scale (0 = extremely unhappy to 7 = perfect ).…”

2019

In Iran, dual-career couples face many stressors due to their demands of balancing work and family. Moreover, the experience of this stress can negatively affect partners’ martial quality. Recent studies have shown the positive impact of dyadic coping on well-being; however, a majority of this research has been conducted with Western cultures. As such, there is a dearth of literature on understanding how supportive and common dyadic coping may have a positive association with work-family stress for couples in Iran. Using a sample of 206 heterosexual dual-career couples from Iran, this study examines the associations between job stress and marital quality, and possible moderating effects of common and perceived partner supportive dyadic coping. As predicted, job stress was negatively associated with marital quality, and this association with further moderated by gender, such that women who experienced greater job stress also reported lower marital quality. Additionally, dyadic coping moderated the association between job stress and marital quality. Common dyadic coping attenuated the negative association between job stress and marital quality. The findings shed light on the possible beneficial effects of teaching supportive and common dyadic coping techniques to dual-career couples in Iran.

Amaç: Çalışmamızda, gebelik döneminde çiftler arası uyum ve prenatal bağlanma arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemek amaçlanmıştır. Hastalar ve Yöntemler: Kesitsel tipteki bu çalışma Ocak-Mart 2018 tarihleri arasında bir üniversite hastanesinin kadın hastalıkları-doğum polikliniğine başvuran n=195 gebe üzerinde yürütülmüştür. Araştırma verileri, "Anket Formu'' , "Çiftler Uyum Ölçeği (ÇUÖ)" ve "Prenatal Bağlanma Envanteri (PBE)'' kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Bulgular: Gebelerin yaş ortalaması 29.5±6.3, eşlerinin yaş ortalaması 32.2±7.2'tür. Gebelerin %71,1'inin tanışarak evlendiği ve evlilik süresi ortalamalarının 7.1±6.4 olduğu bulunmuştur. Gebelerin %49,2'sinin 3. trimesterde olduğu, %71,6'sının planlı gebelik yaşadığı belirlenmiştir. Gebelik sürecinde, gebelerin %83,8'inin duygusal destek aldığı, %77,7'sinin eşten ve %74,1'nin aileden duygusal destek aldığı saptanmıştır. Gebelerin ÇUÖ puan ortalamasının 91,7±32,3, PBE puan ortalamasının ise 64,9±21,2 olduğu saptanırken, ölçekler arasında pozitif yönde anlamlı bir ilişki olduğu bulunmuştur (p<0,001). Tanışarak evlenen, planlı gebelik yaşayan, duygusal ya da fiziksel yönden destek alanların ÇUÖ ve PBE puan ortalamaları arasında pozitif yönde anlamlı ilişki olduğu belirlenmiştir (p<0,001). Sonuç: Gebelerin çift uyumu arttıkça prenatal bağlanma da artmaktadır. Tanışarak evlenen, planlı gebelik yaşayan, duygusal ya da fiziksel yönden destek alan gebelerin çift uyumu ve prenatal bağlanması daha yüksektir.

“…Higher scores indicate an increase in relationship quality. The Turkish version of the scale was created by Fışıloğlu and Demir [22]; its Cronbach’s alpha internal consistency coefficient was 0.92, the split-half reliability coefficient was 0.86, and the correlation with the Marital Adjustment Scale by Locke and Wallace [13] was 0.82. In this study, Cronbach’s alpha was found to be 0.93.…”

Background: The present study investigates the reliability and validity of the Positive–Negative Relationship Quality (PN-RQ) scale in Turkey. This study aims to test different factorial models including orthogonal factors model, correlated factors model, one-factor model, and bifactor model. Methods: In order to determine the validity and reliability of the scale, two studies were performed. The first was carried out with emerging adults (university students) who were in a romantic relationship (148 females, 43 males, and 2 unknown) and had the main purpose to examine the structure validity of the measurement tool in the Turkish sample with an exploratory analysis. Study 2 was performed online with 513 married adults (359 females, 149 males, and 5 unknown); confirmatory findings and criterion validity studies were added. Results: Exploratory factor analyses revealed that relationship quality had a two-factor structure and that there was also a negative relationship between the factors. Confirmatory factor analyses on the married sample showed that the bi-factor model provided evidence for the multidimensional nature of the scale. Both studies demonstrated high internal consistency. Conclusion: There is evidence for reliability and validity in the Turkish version of the PN-RQ scale to measure both positive and negative aspects of the relationship. The PN-RQ scale will be highly functional for social and clinical psychologists who work on close relationship issues in Turkey.
