Abstract
Abstract This study examined whether firefighters who were satisfied with their romantic relationships experienced lower severities of commonly reported mental health symptoms compared to firefighters who were dissatisfied with their relationships. The sample included 200 firefighters (97% male; M age = 41.4, SD = 9.3) currently married or living with a romantic partner who completed self-report measures via online survey. An established cutoff score of 13.5 (Couples Satisfaction Index-4) was used to define groups. Firefighters who indicated that they were dissatisfied with their relationships reported higher levels of all measured outcomes.
