|a Purpose: to study the bi-directional relationship between organizational commitment and marital satisfaction among dual-income couples; to investigate the correlation between the positive or negative strength of that relationship; and to measure the influence of the demographic variables of employee gender, age, presence and number of minor and preschool children in the employee's home, employee length of service with the current employer, and the length of the employee’s current marriage on the strength of the relationship between the employee’s level of organizational commitment and his or her marital satisfaction. Method : this is a descriptive research study that involves online data collection using three surveys, the Index of Marital Satisfaction (IMS), the Organizational Commitment Questionnaire (OCQ), and a demographic questionnaire. The study involves 22 triads for a total of 66 composed of 22 employees, their 22 supervisors and the 22 spouses of the employees. Findings : the main findings are: a) there is not a significant positive relationship between employees’ degree of marital satisfaction and their commitment to the organizations at which they are currently employed, b) there is not a significant positive relationship between an employees’ degree of marital satisfaction and the perceptions of their commitment to the organizations at which they are currently employed, as rated by their immediate supervisors, c) there is not a significant negative relationship between the marital satisfaction of employees’ spouses and the employees’ commitment to the organizations at which they are currently employed and, d) there is not a significant negative relationship between the marital satisfaction of the employees’ spouses and the perceptions of the employees’ commitment to the organizations at which they are currently employed as rated by the employees’ immediate supervisors. |
