Marital Adjustment in Women after One Year of Mastectomy
Miss M. Madhumanti ,Dr. Anuradha Sathiyaseelan
Marital adjustment becomes acceptable when there is mutual understanding, agreement, intimacy and accommodation for each other. The pattern of marital adjustment between a husband and a wife gets disturbed due to the changes brought about by the chronic illness called breast cancer which has both physical as well as psychological impact. The aim of the study was to assess the marital adjustment in women after one year of mastectomy. For this purpose, the sample consisted of 30 women (15 in study group and 15 in control group), who were selected through Purposive sampling technique. The Locke & Wallace Marital Adjustment Test (MAT) was used. The results concluded that marital adjustment is poor among women with mastectomy as compared to women with hysterectomy (t = -2.359; p<.05 and Sig=.026).
