“…We found only one study each that specifically addressed the correlation between arranged marriage (Yasan & Gürgen, ) and intergenerational transmission of divorce (Alqashan & Alkandari, ) with marital outcomes. Also, we found only two studies on gender (Al Horany & Hassan, ; Rostami et al, 2013) and three on attachment style (Egeci & Gençöz, ; Özmen & Atik, ; Raeisipoor et al, ) that examined associations with marital quality and stability.…”

The study of marital quality and stability has attracted widespread attention over the past two decades, with considerable interest in identifying predictors of marital quality and (in)stability. Most of this research comes from Western countries, however, and similar research from other areas is only beginning to develop. In particular, little coherent literature in this area has emerged from Muslim countries. Understanding how marriages develop, succeed, and fail is important for families across the globe, and perspectives relying predominantly on Western data and research perspectives may be of limited use in other contexts. The current review summarizes the existing empirical literature on the basis of samples from predominantly Muslim countries; identifies existing evidence to reveal important gaps with particular emphasis on personal, interpersonal, and contextual factors; and explores potential mechanisms that might explain associations between these factors and indicators of marital functioning.

“…The quality of communication with parents in the family during the early stages of life also plays an important role in the lives of emerging adults who have passed into a new life cycle (Aquilino, 1997). The perceived parenting styles were found to have effects on marital satisfactions of individuals (Kendir &Demirli, 2016), attachment style (Eğeci & Gençöz, 2011;Özdemir, 2014;Yücesan, 2016, Beştav, 2007Sumer, Güngör, 1999) and relationship satisfaction. According to the results of the research, there is a positive relationship between the supportive and warm parenting (Bryant & Cogner, 2002;Masarik, et al, 2013), the flexibility of family and family perceived control (Feldman et al, 1998), the perceived democratic parenting style (Katalan, 2014), and the perceived positive parenting (Dalton, Frish-Horbury & Kitzmann, 2006) with romantic relationship satisfaction.…”

“…Studies in Turkey about satisfaction with romantic relationships and variables related to parents generally examine the relationship with attachment (Sümer & Güngör, 1999;Beştav, 2007;Sarı, 2008;Eğeci & Gençöz, 2011;Özdemir, 2014;Yücesan, 2016) and also parental acceptance rejection (Eryavuz, 2006;Babuşcu, 2014) and parental conflict perception of the effects of parents (Altınok, 2014) on romantic relationships. Regarding the parent-child relationship, to examine how perceived parenting style of romantic relationships affect the satisfaction of emerging adults in Turkey is expected to contribute to the literature something new.…”

In this research, to what extent the perceived parenthood style of emerging adults who are involved in a romantic relationship (flirt, dating, engagement) with the opposite gender at least 6 months in Turkey between the ages of 19-26 directly and via personality traits predict relationship satisfaction is studied. The data of the study was gathered from 417 emerging adults. Data was evaluated implementing independent sampling t-test, Pearson Correlation Coefficient and Bootstrap based on Regression according to the objectives of this study. In this study, when the research variables were examined according to gender, differences in emotional instability dimension and relationship satisfaction. According to the results in the relationship between acceptance perceived from the mother and relationship satisfaction in emerging adulthood, the mediation effect of emotional instability is revealed to be statistically important. Also, in the relationship between acceptance perceived from the father and relationship satisfaction in emerging adulthood, the mediation effects of emotional instability and openness to experience are seen to be statistically important. The direct and total effect of strict supervision and control on relationship satisfaction are seen to be statistically unimportant and that the personality features are not mediating in this relationship.
