The study design comprisedof acorrelational study in which participants were asked to fill in the questionnaires. The results indicated a significant correlation between marital satisfaction and the perceptionof partner communication style as supportive, engaged, and depreciated. The higherlevelof marital satisfaction was found in the married adults who perceived their partner’s communication style as highly supportive and engaged, but the least depreciated.
