ENRICH Marital Satisfaction Scale

0 Shared Subjects

Journal of Family Psychology 1993, Vol. 7, No. 2, 176-185 The scale was found to be reliable and to have strong correlations with other measures of marital satisfaction and moderate relationships with measures of family satisfaction and consideration of divorce. The EMS Scale offers an important alternative to researchers who require a brief but, nevertheless, valid and reliable measure of marital quality. It provides a means to obtain both dyadic and individual satisfaction scores.
