Personality traits can be used to predict an individual's behaviors in different life situations, including marital life situations. Marital satisfaction that is influenced by different factors is a criterion used to assess couples' relationship quality. The goal of the present study was to review Iranian studies on the correlation between personality traits and marital satisfaction.
In this systematic review, all the related Iranian studies in international databases, including Google Scholar, PubMed, Web of Science (ISI) and Scopus, and national databases, including Scientific Information Database (SID) and MagIran were reviewed. The following keywords and also combinations of them were used to search the databases: "Marital satisfaction," "Personality traits," "Personality factors," "Big five model of personality," and "Iran."
A total of 18 correlational studies, without any time limitation, with a total sample of 4049, were reviewed. The following correlation coefficients were found between marital satisfaction and personality traits: r = - 0.439 with neuroticism (95% Confidence Interval [CI]: 0.27-0.60), r = 0.833 with extraversion (95% CI: 0.77-0.88), r = 0.777 with openness (95% CI: 0.70-0.84), r = 0.855 with agreeableness (95% CI: 0.80-0.90), and r = 0.90 with conscientiousness (95% CI: 0.84-0.95).
Couples high in Neuroticism experience lower levels of marital satisfaction, and couples high in Conscientiousness are more satisfied with their marital life.
个性特征可用于预测个体在不同生活情境下的行为，包括婚姻生活情境。受不同因素影响的婚姻满意度是评估夫妻关系质量的标准之一。本研究旨在回顾伊朗关于个性特征与婚姻满意度之间相关性的研究。
在本次系统综述中，检索了国际数据库（包括 Google Scholar、PubMed、Web of Science[ISI]和 Scopus）和国家数据库（包括 Scientific Information Database[SID]和 MagIran）中的所有相关伊朗研究。使用以下关键词和它们的组合来搜索数据库：“婚姻满意度”、“个性特征”、“个性因素”、“大五人格模型”和“伊朗”。
共回顾了 18 项无时间限制的相关研究，总样本量为 4049 人。研究发现婚姻满意度与个性特征之间存在以下相关系数：神经质与婚姻满意度呈负相关（95%置信区间[CI]：0.27-0.60），r= -0.439；外向性与婚姻满意度呈正相关（95% CI：0.77-0.88），r=0.833；开放性与婚姻满意度呈正相关（95% CI：0.70-0.84），r=0.777；宜人性与婚姻满意度呈正相关（95% CI：0.80-0.90），r=0.855；尽责性与婚姻满意度呈正相关（95% CI：0.84-0.95），r=0.90。
神经质水平高的夫妻体验到较低水平的婚姻满意度，尽责性水平高的夫妻对其婚姻生活更满意。
