Immigration is a stressful and challenging experience, and it has a significant role in psychological well-being, including the individual's important relationships. Given a large number of Iranian immigrants in the United States, it is important to better understand the relationship between immigration, marital satisfaction, and well-being in Iranian women. The purpose of the present study was to compare relationship satisfaction among Iranian women who live in Iran and those who immigrated to the United States. Immigrant (n = 51) and non-immigrant (n = 51) Iranian women were surveyed to contrast their attachment style (Relationship Scale Questionnaire), general anxiety (Beck Anxiety Inventory), depression (Beck Depression Inventory), romantic/marital relationship satisfactions (Enrich Marital Relationship Satisfaction Scale), and their ethnic identity (Revised Multigroup Ethnic Identity Measure). Data were analyzed using ANOVA, correlational, and multiple linear regression statistics at the p < .05 threshold for statistical significance. Results indicated that women living in Iran scored significantly higher than Iranian immigrant women in marital satisfaction, fearful attachment style, and depression. Secure attachment was positively correlated with marital relationship satisfaction, while preoccupied attachment style, anxiety, and depression were negatively correlated with marital relationship satisfaction. Multiple regression analysis confirmed that immigration status and depression were significant predictors of marital satisfaction. The findings of this study provide useful information for clinicians working with Iranian immigrants.
