Relationship Between Stress, Anxiety, Depression, Sexual Function and Marital Adjustment in Nurses

One of the factors that increase harmony in marriage is sexual life and sexual satisfaction (Erdinç, 2018). Sexual intercourse is one of the pillars of a successful family; accordingly, functionality in this area greatly affects marital adjustment (Atrian, 2018). Studies show an important relationship between sexual adjustment and marital adjustment (Türkseven et al., 2020; Begdeş, 2021). Negative workplace factors such as occupational stress and long working hours affect the physical and mental states of nurses (Oyeleye et al., 2013; Chesak et al., 2019).This study was planned to determine the relationship between stress, anxiety, depression, sexual function and marital adjustment in nurses.
