Abstract
The current research focused on exploring the relationship of marital adjustment and life satisfaction among young and old couples. Main objective of the study was to find out the effect of age on marital adjustment and life satisfaction among young and old couples. The Dyadic Adjustment Scale (DAS) and Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS) were used to measure the phenomenon of marital adjustment and life satisfaction. The sample was comprised of (N=300) young and old couples. Young married couples (n=150) and Old married couples (n=150) selected from three districts of Odisha (Bhadrak, Balasore & Mayurbhanj). Pearson Product Moment Correlation and t-test were used for statistical analysis. Results indicate a significant positive correlation (r= .43, significant at p .01) in marital adjustment and life satisfaction. On the other hand there is a significant difference (significant at p .001) between old married couples and young married couples on marital adjustment. The results also indicate that there is a significant difference (significant at p .001) between old married couples and young married couples on life satisfaction.
