Abstract

The purpose of this study is to look into the association between adult occupational stress and marital satisfaction. It also examines how having kids affects marital satisfaction and work stress levels. On the other hand, the Indian setting lacks pertinent data. This study, which has 154 participants, is quantitative in nature. The data collection method employed was random sampling. There were 89 female participants and 65 male participants in this study, with ages ranging from 20 to 64. Occupational stress was measured using the workplace stress scale, which has eight items. A 25-item index of marriage satisfaction was used to measure marital satisfaction. The findings indicated that there is no connection between adult marital satisfaction and work stress. Also, shows that there is no gender difference in occupational stress and marital satisfaction. There is also no difference in occupational stress for adults with children and without children. However, there is a significant difference in marital satisfaction among adults with children and without children.
