description | Background: Pressures in nursing can affect family life and marital problems, disrupt common social problems,
increase work-family conflicts and endanger people’s general health.
Aim: To determine marital satisfaction and its relationship with job stress and general health of nurses.

Results: The findings showed that 64.4% of nurses had marital satisfaction. There was significant relationship
between age (p=0.03), job experience (p=0.01), age of spouse (p=0.01) and marital satisfaction. The results
showed that there was a significant relationship between marital satisfaction and general health (p<0.0001).
Multiple regression analysis showed that there was a significant relationship between depression (p=0.012) and
anxiety (p=0.001) with marital satisfaction.
