As a result of the analysis, in the relationship between the husband and wife's perception of gender equality, happiness, and satisfaction with family life, both husband and wife found that the perception of gender equality had a significant effect on satisfaction with family life in the actor effect, and that satisfaction with family life had a significant effect on happiness. It was confirmed that this was a factor. However, there was a gender difference between couples in the partner effect.
