Abstract
Every individual wants to achieve subjective happiness, which is characterized by feelings of happiness and joy in assessing their life. Marital satisfaction and spirituality are factors that can affect a person's subjective happiness. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of marital satisfaction and spirituality on subjective happiness and to see the influence of demographic factors. This research uses the causality correlation method, which involves 160 participants with the characteristics of a married couple domiciled in Bandung city and the age range of 20-40 years. The validity and reliability test results show that the three instruments have validity in the range of 0.81-0.89, 0.45-0.83, and 0.53-0.83. The reliability test results of the three instruments are 0.81, 0.91, and 0.75. The data processing in this study used hierarchical multiple regression. The analysis results show that marital satisfaction and spirituality affect subjective happiness. The results of the influence test involving demographic factors showed that ethnicity and absence of disease were predictors of subjective happiness. It is suggested to the next researcher to homogenize ethnicity, which is Sundanese. Married couples are expected to maintain their marital satisfaction and spirituality.
