Popis: With survey data, the study examines gender as a conditional variable in the effects of family satisfaction and economic strain on psychological well-being among married people. Analysis supports the hypothesis that the positive effect of family satisfaction is greater among women than among men. Contrary to predictions, the inverse effect of economic strain is the same for women, regardless of employment status, as for men. Implications of these findings for family life scholars, educators, and therapists are discussed.
