Abstract :Mediation analysis measures the effect of an independent variable on the dependent variable in the presence of a third variable designated as the mediator. The mediation variable plays a very important role by providing a detailed perspective in better understanding the relationship between both variables. In this study, the mediating role of psychological well-being in the relationship between spouse burnout and marital satisfaction of married individuals was tested. In addition, the effect of parents\' marital satisfaction on their children\'s well-being cannot be ignored. 183 participants (83 women and 100 men) participated in the study. Demographic Information Form, Golombok-Rust Marital Status Inventory, Spouse Burnout Scale, and Psychological Well-Being Scale were administered to the participants. The data were analyzed and evaluated by adding the Process v.4 module (Hayes, 2022) to the SPSS 21 program and following its procedures. According to this analysis, it was determined that there was a negative relationship between spouse burnout and marital satisfaction and that the psychological well-being dimension played a partial mediator role in the relationship between spouse burnout and marital satisfaction. It is thought that this study will give an idea and contribute to choosing variables that may have a stronger mediating role for researchers who will study spouse burnout and marital satisfaction.
