Abstract

The focus of this study is to examine variations in marital satisfaction across genders (working fathers and mothers) and traditional vs. career couples in bankers in Pakistan. Data has been collected from 352 male bankers (working fathers) and 188 female bankers (working mothers) through a closed-ended questionnaire. Measures included demographic information and the marital satisfaction scale. These study findings show a significant difference in reports of marital satisfaction. Working fathers reported more marital satisfaction than working mothers. Dual-career households experienced lesser satisfaction with marriage than traditional career households.
