Book excerpt: While there has been considerable research on marital satisfaction for the White population, less has been written about marital satisfaction for African-Americans. Specifically, research has not provided significant insights into issues impacting on marital satisfaction for African-American couples. Such issues include income, education, age, occupation, and length of marriage. Data on marital satisfaction were gathered using the Marital Satisfaction Inventory (MSI) from a sample of 50 African-American couples in Prince Georges County, Maryland. Information on age, education, salary, occupation, and length of marriage was also gathered. Analysis of data from the MSI and Biographical Profile at a level of significance of.05 revealed no significant linear correlation between degree of marital satisfaction identified by African-American married couples and the variables occupation and length of marriage. the findings of the study did indicate that there is significant correlation between the degree of satisfaction identified by African-American married couples and age, education, and salary.
