Abstract

The empty nest syndrome phenomenon occurs when children leave home, often triggering feelings of loneliness, loss, and emptiness, especially for mothers. This study aims to analyze the relationship between marital satisfaction and empty nest syndrome in 109 housewives aged 40 to 60 who no longer live with their children. This study employs a quantitative method with a correlational design. Data were collected online via a questionnaire, using the ENRICH Marital Satisfaction Scale (EMS) and an empty nest syndrome scale measuring aspects of loss, sadness, and emptiness. Based on statistical analysis using Spearman's rank correlation coefficient, the results showed a negative correlation between marital satisfaction and empty nest syndrome among housewives (r = -0.386, p <0.001). The findings of this study are consistent with the proposed hypothesis, which states that there is a negative relationship between marital satisfaction and empty nest syndrome among housewives.
