Article Abstract:

This article examines how family-of-origin experiences influence each partner's experience of marriage. The authors, employing structural equation modeling procedures in which the couple is the unit of analysis, found that family-of-origin experiences significantly influence marital adjustment, however, wives were more strongly influenced by their family of origin than husbands.
