Abstract

This study examined longitudinal dyadic and within-partner associations among self-esteem, subjective happiness, and marital conflict in married couples, with a possible moderating role of wives' employment status. Data were analyzed from the Panel Study on Korean Children, nationwide longitudinal data. The study sample included 1668 married couples (N = 3336 participants) where both partners provided separate data annually across three waves. Husbands' and wives' mean ages at T1 were 39.3 and 36.8 years, respectively. For both partners, self-esteem and subjective happiness were related bidirectionally at an individual level. Wives' marital conflict was linked to husbands' subsequent marital conflict and vice versa. Wives played a greater role in their husbands’ self-esteem than vice versa. Findings suggest that wives tend to be their husband's substantial source of perceived psychological well-being than the reverse; however, the benefit of psychological well-being is likely to be lower for husbands of stay-at-home wives.

夫妻婚姻冲突与心理健康之间的纵向互动关系：妻子就业的调节作用

本研究探讨了已婚夫妇的自尊、主观幸福感和婚姻冲突之间的纵向伴侣关系和伴侣内部关系，以及妻子的就业状况可能起到的调节作用。数据分析来自韩国儿童小组研究（Panel Study on Korean Children）的全国性纵向数据。研究样本包括 1668 对已婚夫妇（N = 3336 名参与者），夫妻双方每年分别提供三次波次的数据。第一次调查时，丈夫和妻子的平均年龄分别为 39.3 岁和 36.8 岁。对于夫妻双方来说，自尊和主观幸福感在个人层面上是双向相关的。妻子的婚姻冲突与丈夫随后的婚姻冲突有关，反之亦然。妻子对丈夫自尊的影响比反之更大。研究结果表明，妻子往往是丈夫心理幸福感的主要来源，而不是相反；然而，对于家庭主妇的丈夫来说，心理幸福感的益处可能较低。
