Background and Aim: Given the importance of marital satisfaction in all aspects of quality of life; the aim of this study was to predict marital satisfaction through job stress in sailors.
Methods: The present research was a descriptive-correlational study conducted in Bushehr city, south of Iran in 2022. The statistical population was married sailors aged 35 to 40 years in Bushehr city, who were included in the study by available sampling. The sample size was 60 sailors who volunteered to participate in the study. Osipow's (1987) occupational stress and Enrich's (1998) marital satisfaction questionnaires were used to collect data.
Results: There is a significant negative relationship between job stress and marital satisfaction (p=0.001). The results of regression analysis showed that job stress explains 43% of the variance of marital satisfaction.
Conclusion: Considering the existence of job stress in maritime work and the importance of 43% job stress in predicting marital satisfaction, it is suggested to develop strategies to reduce job stress in sailors so that sailors are protected from short-term and long-term complications of lack of marital satisfaction.
