Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation coefficient and multivariate regression tests. In the male group, there was a significant positive and direct relationship between marital satisfaction and the components of oligarchy, partisanship, introspection and conservative component of thinking style components, and in the female group, there was a significant relationship between marital satisfaction and the component. There was a significant positive and direct relationship between oligarchy and the conservative component, and there was also a negative and inverse relationship between the minority component and marital satisfaction. Due to the significantrelationship between thinking style and marital satisfaction, it is necessary to pay attention to the thinking style of couples working with the family.
