本研究係採「立意抽樣」以及「滾雪球抽樣」方式進行取樣,選取左營地區志願役軍人妻子為研究對象,正式施測樣本為 500 份,扣除填答不完整等無效問卷後,實得有效樣本為 457 份,有效回收率為91.40%。所使用之研究工具包括:「個人背景資料表」、「家庭壓力量表」及「婚姻品質量表」。施測所得資料以SPSS for Windows 25.0進行結果 分析,分別採用:敘述統計、單一樣本 t 檢定、獨立樣本 t 檢定、單因子變異數分析、雪費事後比較法、皮爾森積差相關,以及多元迴歸分析等統計方法加以分析,本研究結果如下:
一、左營地區志願役軍人妻子「家庭壓力」與「婚姻品質」之現況
(一) 左營地區志願役軍人妻子之整體「家庭壓力」傾向於「中低程度」。其中,以「家庭事件」的家庭壓力感受程度為最高,而以「家人相處」之家庭壓力感受程度為最低。
(二) 左營地區志願役軍人妻子之整體「婚姻品質」呈現「良好」之情況。其中,以「夫妻互動滿意度」的婚姻品質評價為最高,而以「一致程度」之婚姻品質評價為最低。
二、左營地區志願役軍人妻子「個人背景因素」對「家庭壓力」的差異情形
(一) 左營地區志願役軍人妻子之整體「家庭壓力」會因「丈夫單位性
質」、「丈夫職務性質」、「丈夫平均返家間隔天數」、「居住狀況」、「婆媳關係」、「工作壓力」的不同而有所差異。
(二) 左營地區志願役軍人妻子的「婆媳關係」與「家庭壓力」之間呈現顯著「低程度之負相關」;左營地區志願役軍人妻子的「工作壓力」與「家庭壓力」之間呈現顯著「低程度之正相關」。
三、左營地區志願役軍人妻子「個人背景因素」對「婚姻品質」的差
異情形
