Religiosity and Marital Commitment: 'Until Death Do Us Part' Revisited

Year 2020, Volume: 23 Issue: 59, 493 - 516, 15.12.2020

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to review the linkages between the religious factor and commitment to marriage. The nature and meaning of marital commitment are briefly discussed in the first section. The section two examines the research by utilising religious affiliation as a predictor in explaining marital stability and satisfaction. Religious affiliation seems to be a significant influence in holding marriages together. There is, however, increasing evidence that "affiliation" is a less elegant measure of the religious factor than actual participation in more conservative religious groups. The third section reviews the linkages between religious commitment (as indicated by religious attendance, measures of religiosity, and religious community) and commitment to marriage and family. Religious commitment is an apparent and quite consistent correlate of marital satisfaction and stability. The evidence, even so, is far from definitive. Several theoretical and methodological concerns over the set on the religious factor in research are uttered. Some suggestions on the issue are made for further research.

DİNDARLIK VE EVLİLİĞE BAĞLILIK: ‘ÖLÜM BİZİ AYIRINCAYA DEK’ İN DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİ

Year 2020, Volume: 23 Issue: 59, 493 - 516, 15.12.2020

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, dini faktör ile evliliğe olan bağlılık arasındaki bağlantıları gözden geçirmektir. Birinci bölümde evliliğe bağlılığın doğası ve anlamı kısaca tartışılmaktadır. İkinci bölümde, dini bağlılığı ve evlilikteki istikrar ve doyumunu açıklamada bir yordayıcı olarak kullanılan araştırma incelenmektedir. Dini bağlılık, evlilikleri bir arada tutabilmede önemli bir etken olarak görülmektedir. Bununla birlikte, “bağlılığın”, daha muhafazakâr dini gruplara fiili katılıma kıyasla dini faktörün daha az önemli bir kriter olduğuna yönelik artan deliller vardır. Üçüncü bölümde, dini bağlılık (dini katılım, dindarlık ölçekleri ve dini cemaat tarafından belirtildiği gibi) ile evlilik ve aileye bağlılık arasındaki ilişkiler incelenmektedir. Dini bağlılık, evlilik doyumu ve istikrarı ile açık ve oldukça tutarlı bir ilişki içerisindedir. Ancak yine de deliller kesin olmaktan uzaktır. Araştırmada dini faktörün kullanımında çeşitli teorik ve metodolojik kaygılar dile getirilmektedir. Gelecek çalışmalar için öneriler yapılmıştır.
