Abstract
This study aimed to explain the spousal role in the lives of Iranian middle-aged women. This qualitative study was conducted in Iran from July 2018 to November 2019. The participants included 25 middle-aged women selected through purposive sampling. The data were collected using semi-structured interviews and analyzed through conventional content analysis. The theme of reviving the spousal role was explained by three main categories of paying more attention to the spouse’s needs, enhancing feminine charms, and maintaining married life. A deeper understanding of the middle-aged women’s spousal role may help health-care personnel to develop indigenous marriage-enrichment programs for middle-aged individuals.
