Background: One of the important issues in the field of educational psychology is the relationship between parents' marital compatibility and students' academic performance. To explain the relationship between marital adjustment and academic performance, it is necessary to identify mediating factors between them. A possible factor is student happiness. However, no study has investigated the structural relationship between marital adjustment and academic performance of students with the role of happiness mediator.
Aims: The aim of the present study was to investigate the structural relationship between parents' marital compatibility and children's happiness with their academic performance.
Methods: The current research was descriptive, of correlation and structural equations type. The statistical population includes high school students of Farhang, Imam Hossein (AS), and Shahid Esfahani high schools in Babol city in the academic year 2021-2022, among which 300 students were selected by multi-stage cluster random sampling. To gather data, we utilized two questionnaires: the Oxford Happiness Questionnaire (Argyle Valley, 1990) and Graham Biaspanier's Marital Compatibility Questionnaire (1976). For evaluating academic progress, we analyzed students' first-semester grade point average using descriptive statistics methods (frequency, mean, and standard deviation) and inference from structural regression equation modeling. The data was analyzed with the help of spss18 and amos23 software.
Results: The research model has been approved, and it shows that the academic achievement variable can be explained by two predictability variables (R2=0.48), namely marital adjustment and happiness. These variables have both direct and indirect effects, and are statistically significant at a level of 0.05.
Conclusion: Considering the significance of the relationships between the investigated variables, the results of the present research emphasize the necessity of the role of marital adjustment and the behavior of learners with regard to happiness with the educational system, which can be used as a framework for designing educational programs in order to strengthen marital adjustment and academic performance of students.
