Abstract/Summary

The role of religiosity and relational spirituality in married couples’ marital lives were studied in this research to explore if it can compensate for a vulnerability factor such as trait anxiety. To assess how couples integrate their own religious practices and spiritual beliefs into their lives, self-measuring validated scales were administered through online questionnaires which are as follows: Belief into Action Scale for measure of religiosity, Faith Maturity Scale Short Form for relational spirituality, ENRICH Marital Satisfaction Scale for measure of marital satisfaction, and Trait Anxiety from State-Trait Anxiety Scale for measure of individual levels of trait anxiety. Using moderation analysis model through logistic regression, results showed that while trait anxiety is a predictor of marital satisfaction, religiosity and relational spirituality do not moderate for it.
