| Abstract: This study examined the relationship between the components of spousal support (emotional, task and esteem) and marital satisfaction among married female bank workers in Warri metropolis. Stratified random sampling technique was used to select the size of 209 married female bank workers. The instrument used to collect the data is a questionnaire titled “Spousal support and marital satisfaction scale|”. The component of spousal support has the construct validity of 87.70 and content scale ranging from 0.60-0.99. The reliability of the instrument is 0.97. Descriptive statistics and regression analysis are the statistical tools used to analyse the data. The analysis shows that components of spousal support (esteem, emotional task) have positive and significant relationship with marital satisfaction. However, the strongest relationship between esteem support and marital satisfaction is 0.834, followed by task support of 0.805 and lastly emotional support is 0.596. It was recommended that counsellors should propagate strategies for effective support since spouses are primarily responsible for the well being of their partner. |
