Abstract

Intercultural marriage as a subject of research remains unpopular despite its rich history. With this scarcity of literature base, most studies regarding the topic described the general aspects of marriage while specific issues of it such as marital conflict leave much to be investigated. Such research gaps warrant the writing of this report. This report aimed to describe the conflict experiences of Filipino wives in intercultural marriages. Specifically, this report looked into the sources, experiences, and typologies of conflict as perceived and experienced by 15 Filipino wives in intercultural marriages.
