Author(s):Ali Khademi

The aim of this research was to study the prediction of marital dissatisfaction based on personality characteristics and social relations in couples of students and non-students. For this purpose, using Cluster sampling, 350 participants from the cities of Mahabad, Khoy, and Urmia were selected. Data were collected by ENRICH, NEO and social relations questionnaires and were analyzed by t test, correlation, and regression analysis. The results showed that there is significant correlation between marital dissatisfaction with neuroticism, agreeableness, conscientiousness, and immaturity in social relations. Also, neuroticism, agreeableness, conscientiousness, and immaturity in social relations can predict marital dissatisfaction in couples of students and non-students. Also, data showed that the average in couples of students is higher significantly than non-students. In general, it can be concluded that the abnormalities in personality characteristics and social relations in couples can predict marital dissatisfaction.
