چکیده
هدف: این پژوهش بررسی و تبیین تفاوت‌های گرایش به طلاق، دلزدگی زناشویی، تمایزیافتگی خود و رضایت جنسی بر اساس ویژگی‌های جمعیت‌شناختی (مدت‌زمان ازدواج، وضعیت اقتصادی، سطح تحصیلات و جنسیت) در میان زوج‌های متقاضی طلاق بود.

روش: پژوهش علی مقایسه‌ای با نمونه‌گیری هدفمند انجام شد. داده‌ها در سال‌های ۱۴۰۰ و ۱۴۰۱ از ۴۲۶ نفر (۲۱۳ زوج) مراجع دفتر کاهش طلاق شهر شیراز گردآوری شد. پرسش‌نامه‌های استاندارد شامل مقیاس گرایش به طلاق، مقیاس رضایت جنسی، مقیاس تمایزیافتگی خود و مقیاس سرخوردگی زناشویی استفاده شدند. داده‌ها با نرم‌افزار SPSS نسخه ۲۶ و آزمون‌های تحلیل واریانس یک‌طرفه و t مستقل تحلیل شدند.

یافته‌ها: گرایش به طلاق (013/0P=) و سرخوردگی زناشویی (007/0P=) در زوج‌های با مدت ازدواج بیشتر بالاتر بود. رضایت جنسی در اوایل ازدواج بیشتر بود (002/0P=). تمایزیافتگی تفاوت معناداری نداشت (05/0P>). افراد با وضعیت اقتصادی بهتر رضایت جنسی بالاتری داشتند (01/0P<). تحصیلات بالاتر با رضایت جنسی (001/0P<) و تمایزیافتگی (003/0P=) همراه بود. مردان در تمایزیافتگی (01/0P=) و رضایت جنسی (02/0P=) نمرات بالاتری داشتند و زنان سرخوردگی بیشتری گزارش کردند (005/0P=). تفاوت معناداری در گرایش به طلاق بین دو جنس نبود (09/0P=).

نتیجه‌گیری: عوامل جمعیت‌شناختی در کیفیت روابط زناشویی نقش دارند و تفاوت‌های جنسیتی باید در مداخله­‌های روان‌­درمانی و مشاوره موردتوجه باشند. همچنین بررسی متغیرهای پنهان فرهنگی و روانی در پژوهش‌های آینده ضروری است.

چکیده English

Aim: This study examined differences in tendency toward divorce, sexual satisfaction, marital disaffection, and self-differentiation based on demographic characteristics among couples applying for divorce.

Method: This causal-comparative study included 426 individuals (213 couples) who attended the Divorce Reduction Office in Shiraz during 2021–2022. Participants were selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using standardized measures of tendency toward divorce, sexual satisfaction, self-differentiation, and marital disaffection. Statistical analyses included one-way ANOVA and independent t-tests conducted in SPSS-26.

Results: Tendency toward divorce (p = 0.013) and marital disaffection (p = 0.007) were significantly higher among couples with longer marital duration. Sexual satisfaction was greater during the early years of marriage (p = 0.002). Better economic status was associated with higher sexual satisfaction (p < 0.01), and higher educational level was associated with increased sexual satisfaction (p < 0.001) and self-differentiation (p = 0.003). Men reported significantly higher self-differentiation and sexual satisfaction, whereas women reported greater marital disaffection. No significant gender difference was found in tendency toward divorce.

Conclusion: Demographic variables significantly influence marital functioning and relational outcomes among couples seeking divorce. These findings highlight the importance of considering socioeconomic and gender-related factors in marital counseling and intervention programs.
