This study[3] was undertaken to examine the role of marital offence-specific forgiveness and semantic differential of sex roles in marital satisfaction. Method of the current study was descriptive-correlational. The statistical population included all married teachers in Zahedan and the sample size was 590 individuals who were selected through random multi-stage sampling method. The instruments comprised Marital Offence-Specific Forgiveness Scale (MOFS), Semantic Differential of Sex Roles (SDSR) Scale, and ENRICH marital satisfaction scale. The obtained data were analyzed using descriptive (mean and standard deviation) and inferential (pearson correlation and stepwise regression analysis) statistics. The results showed that there was a significant negative relationship between resentment-avoidance (a dimension of marital offence-specific forgiveness) and marital satisfaction, whereas a significant positive association was observed between benevolence (a dimension of marital offence-specific forgiveness) and marital satisfaction. Additionally, results of stepwise regression analysis indicated that resentment-avoidance and benevolence (dimensions of marital offence-specific forgiveness) predicted marital satisfaction of married men and women. Furthermore, the results demonstrated that marital satisfaction was significantly and positively correlated with autonomy, empathy, and power in married men and women. In addition, results of stepwise regression analysis showed that empathy (a dimension of semantic differential of sex roles) was able to predict marital satisfaction of married men and women by itself.
