Abstract
Dyadic adjustment can be handled as a state in which there is an overall feeling of happiness and satisfaction with marriage. Women have become so much more active in work life over the past years that the changes in the roles of women also affect the communication with their husbands and as a result their dyadic adjustment. On this basis, the aim of this study is to determine the moderator role of employment status of women in the relationship between critical thinking disposition and dyadic adjustment of married people. The research group was composed of 242 spouses. The data were collected with Demographical Information Form, Critical Thinking Disposition Scale and Dyadic Adjustment Scale. The results showed that there was a correlation between critical thinking disposition and dyadic adjustment. According to the hierarchical regression analysis, there was no moderator role of employment status of women in the relationship between critical thinking disposition and dyadic adjustment.

Summary
Marriage is a rapport between two adults, including love and responsibility for development of strong family relationships. The quality of marital communications has a critical role in dyadic adjustment of spouses that can be handled as a state in which there is an overall feeling of happiness and satisfaction with their marriage (Hashmi, Khurshid & Hassan, 2006). It denotes emotional stability, intellectual efficiency and social effectiveness of people, which are the most necessary components of communication that results in the improvement of dyadic adjustment. The previous studies reported that high avoidance of and withdrawal from communication were correlated with low levels of dyadic adjustment (Bodenmann, Kaiser, Hahlweg & Fehm-Wolfsdorf , 1998)
