English abstract
The current study aimed to identify the relationship between Marital Conflict Resolutions Skills and Marital Forgiveness among the sample of married women working at schools in the South Al Batinah Governorate, and find out the differences in them according to the variables of age and the marriage years. The study sample consists of (401) married women who were selected randomly. The correlational descriptive design was used. Conflict Resolution Measure (Rahim, 1983) and Marital Forgiveness Measure (Paleari, Regalia & Fincham,2009) were used. The results showed that the Integrating style was the most used, while the Avoiding and Disregarding were less used. The results showed that the level of marital forgiveness was moderate. The results also showed that there were no statistically significant differences in all conflict resolution skills except disregarding where due to age in favor of women who their ages are more than 40 years old, and due to marriage years in favor of who have been married more than 20 years. The results showed that there were no statistically significant differences in the level of marital forgiveness due to age and marriage year's variables. Finally, the results indicated that marital forgiveness explained 5.6% of variance in the conflict resolution skills.
