Abstract

AbstractThe purpose of this research was to compare the amount of marital conflicts in religious families based on the amount of satellite usage in their father's house (main family). The present research method is quantitative and causal-comparative. For this purpose, 313 couples (626 samples) from the statistical population, including married students living in residential complexes in Qom, were selected by a multi-stage cluster random sampling method, and they were asked demographic questionnaires related to the amount of satellite usage and marital conflicts questionnaire by Sanai et al (2008) answered.The findings indicated that there is a statistically significant difference in marital conflicts between three groups of people according to the amount of satellite usage in their father's house. People whose father's house did not use satellite at all had less marital conflicts than people whose father's house used satellite very often or sometimes. Therefore, in explaining and psychologically and socially analyzing factors of marital conflicts and family problems and planning for prevention and treatment, it is necessary to pay enough attention to factors and cultural platforms such as media and satellite.Keywords: .
