Kepuasan Pernikahan pada Istri Generasi Milenial di Sepuluh Tahun Awal Pernikahan

According to the stages of development, this period is ideal for the millennial generation to build a household. More millennials are deciding to postpone marriage. This study aims to examine working women of the millennial generation who decide to get married. This research used an emergent mixed-method sequential explanatory design. The emergent mixed method is a mixed-method research design that was not decided at the outset. Researchers first conducted quantitative research. Qualitative research was carried out because there were significant findings for further exploration in the quantitative phase. Participants in Study 1 consisted of 123 working mothers, while five working mothers became participants in Study 2. The participants were working wives from the millennial generation undergoing the first 10 years of marriage. The findings of Study 2 were inconsistent with the findings of Study 1, or discordance occurred. Findings from Study 2 were different from the findings obtained in Western countries. Participants used religious values as a guide to maintaining the integrity and longevity of the marriage. In addition, the partner’s involvement in raising children brings satisfaction and happiness to the participants in their marriage.
