Research Article: Association of marital status with affective temperament, education, occupation, and bonding style

Date Published: 2026-06-04

Abstract:
Marital status, such as marriage and divorce, is an important aspect of one's life and is associated with biopsychosocial and economic factors. The present study aimed to investigate the association of marital status with affective temperament, education, occupation, and bonding style. The dataset included 112 individuals consisting of 28 unmarried, 69 married, and 15 divorced individuals. First, demographic data, including age, gender, education, occupation, affective temperament, and bonding style, were compared among the three groups (unmarried, married, and divorced) using analysis of variance or ? 2 test. Second, multinominal logistic regression analyses were performed. The proportion of full-time employees was significantly lower than that of homemakers in married participants compared with divorced participants, whereas neither education, affective temperament, nor parental bonding was significantly associated with marital status. The present findings suggest that the proportion of full-time employees may be significantly lower than that of homemakers in married participants compared with divorced participants. Further prospective studies are needed to clarify causality and additional contributing factors.
