Summary
Dual military couples were recruited from a military family medicine clinic and completed questionnaires about relationship functioning. Levels of physiological stress were also assessed in both partners. Although the number of deployments did not affect reported marital satisfaction or quality, higher military rank in the wives was related to poorer marital functioning.
