Marital Intimacy and Spiritual Weil-Being

Abstract

Notes that although marital intimacy has become a recent focus of empirical studies, its relationship to spirituality has remained virtually unexplored. Reports some preliminary findings of an empirical study examining the relationship between marital intimacy and spiritual well-being in a sample of ninety-three married men and women. Results demonstrate that there is a positive relationship between marital intimacy and spiritual well-being, making this a fertile field for further study.
