Abstract

Using a cross-sectional research approach, the current study attempts to investigate the association between forgiving and marital happiness in working and nonworking women. The 243 population size was selected by considering power (80%), significance (0.95), and range of confidence (95%).As a consequence, a sample of 300 women was gathered, of which 150 were employed in a variety of capacities and the remaining 150 were native to the KPK Hazara division in the appropriate age range (20–60 years) and educational attainment (16 years and above) were selected using the Non-Probability (Convenience) sampling approach. The selection of the participants was based on their voluntary engagement, 16 years of schooling, and service with various groups. The Heartland Forgiveness Scale has been utilized to ascertain psychological forgiveness. An SWML was the tool used to gauge marital satisfaction. Positive relationship was found between Forgiveness and Marital satisfaction. Multiple linear regression revealed forgiveness to be significant predictor of marital contentment. Results also showed that forgiveness is higher among non-working women. This study may effectively be used in psychotherapy and substantially integrated in general counselling for young adults. Also it has high significance for marital counselling and couple conflict resolution.
