Abstract :
This study aimed to predict the women's marital satisfaction level compared to men based on spiritual intelligence in two groups of students in Kerman. The sample of this study included 160 people selected by random sampling, 80 of whom were married seminary students of Kerman, and the other 80 were married students of Shahid Bahonar University of Kerman. The King Spiritual Intelligence Questionnaire and the Inrich (Enrich) Marital Satisfaction Questionnaire were used to collect data. Pearson correlation, t-test, two independent groups, linear regression were used to analyze the collected data with SPSS 23 software. The results showed that there is a significant difference between spiritual intelligence and marital satisfaction between the two groups of students. Also, seminary students have more marital satisfaction than the other group (p <.001). There was no significant difference between the spiritual intelligence of men and women. Considering that spiritual intelligence shapes individual behaviors in society, it is effective in solving life problems. The purpose of this study was to clarify the importance of spirituality and spiritual intelligence on the level of marital satisfaction. Therefore, by strengthening spiritual intelligence in these two influential groups in society, it is possible to help increase marital satisfaction and empower them.
