Abstract
The relationship between work-identity salience and sources of satisfaction and marital adjustment was investigated in a sample of 40 male blue-collar workers ranging in age from 25 to 41 years and all in traditional marriages. Other predictors of marital adjustment were work-task complexity, age, income, and salience of secondary role commitments. Supporting a limited capacity expansion model, satisfaction with extrinsic work factors was related to marital adjustment, while satisfaction with intrinsic work factors was negatively related to secondary role salience. Age was negatively related to satisfaction with extrinsic work factors and positively related to marital adjustment.
