In Iran, where tradition and faith greatly influence families -- something true to many cultures -- understanding the different stuff that goes on in Iran households is essential. But here’s the twist: not much has been looked into understanding how spirituality and gender affect happiness and well-being of Iranian couples.

    Iran is a big country with a huge population and many problems to tackle. There is currently a gap in knowing how spirituality and gender work in tandem -- to balance the weight -- impacting the quality of life for married couples.

    There is plenty of research looking into quality of life, specifically health related quality of life. But, when it comes to Iran, there needs to be effort to ensure the context of marriage is not overlooked.

    You see, family functioning and gender roles are huge in creating healthy happy households -- especially in a context like Iran. Resolving how these can impact a married couple's quality of life or lack of throughout the course of their lives is the topic of study.

    In many places, religion has a lot to do with marriage. How men and women interact is very important and might change how happy they feel.

    Culture has something to do with that and most importantly in places like Iran. Unfortunately this has to be re-evaluated in order to understand what happens in Iranian marriages, that is what has been presented in this research age, very important your understanding! in  terms of family

    The spiritual beliefs also have a huge weight on how people live their lives, this could be bad or good but is definitely not unnoticeable.

    That "everything matters" and is ultimately what this study wants to press home to its readers.

    To be honest this is quite an effort in the sense of filling the gap. Bringing up things that people think about into the light and figuring them out to make a much bigger impact.

    What this brings home is this, how do families really work, especially in parts of the world where religion plays a huge part in the lives of people

    Religion is a growing concern in public health. But isn't that also true of gender and family?

    it is truly hard to admit but many times people and eveyyone experiences gender inequality, especially in cultures similar to Iran's.

    But this is not talked about a lot in medical literature. Few researchers have looked at the impact of government programs on health.

    Religion also has broken a few marriages -- if someone in a marriage starts to do not believe in that God or faith they might end up in trouble.
