中文摘要

本研究旨在檢視台灣婚姻關係中之性別差異。本研究使用標準化婚姻滿意量表(ENRICH)作爲測量工具,以非隨機取樣的方式,收集了100對一般夫婦(community sample)的橫切面資料。研究結果顯示,多數的受訪者(85%)對其婚姻表示滿意,且先生的婚姻滿意度顯著地高於太太。另外,對於婚姻各個層面的滿意度(例如溝通、財務管理、性愛關係等),夫妻雙方對其評價的相關係數雖有達到顯著,但卻呈現低度至中度的相關,而非高度相關。這意謂著婚姻關係與婚滿意度的性別差異存在。處於同一個婚姻中的夫妻兩人,對其婚姻的整體評價,以及婚姻生活各個層面的看法與感受皆有顯著性的落差。

英文摘要

This study aimed to examine gender differences in marriage among Taiwanese couples. Quantitative and cross-sectional data were collected from a community sample of 100 married couples in Taiwan. In general, the Taiwanese participants (85%) expressed satisfaction with their marriage, with men reporting higher satisfaction levels than women. Moreover, the correlation between husband and wife on how they view their relationship in various aspects of their marriage was significant, but it was a low or moderate correlation. This study echoes with previous western findings and demonstrates that there are gender differences in marriage. Husbands and wives have different levels of marital satisfaction.
