Abstract:
This study investigates the attachment styles of couples in arranged versus love marriages, focusing on their implications for marital satisfaction. Utilizing attachment theory, which suggests that early caregiver relationships influence adult romantic dynamics, the research assesses how these styles affect intimacy, conflict resolution, and emotional needs within marriages. The sample comprised 80 participants (40 couples) evaluated with the Marital Quality Scale (MQS) and the Attachment Styles Questionnaire (ASQ). Findings indicate significant differences in attachment styles: arranged marriage couples displayed higher secure attachment scores, suggesting better emotional connectivity and satisfaction, while love marriage couples exhibited elevated levels of avoidant and anxious-ambivalent attachment styles. These results align with existing literature, emphasizing that attachment patterns play a critical role in shaping relationship dynamics. The study concludes that arranged marriages foster more secure attachment, leading to greater satisfaction, whereas love marriages may encounter higher levels of insecurity and dissatisfaction.
