Resumo(s)

This study follows up on a prior review of empirical research on African marital relationships (scientific dissemination, thematic focus, and methodology), and presents a summary of the results of empirical studies conducted in Africa (2000-2018) on psychological processes and patterns in conjugality. Forty-one empirical studies, performed predominantly in countries such as Nigeria, Ghana and South Africa, were analyzed. The main themes identified were related to three categories: (1) conjugality, motivation and wellbeing; (2) marital quality, satisfaction and stability; (3) marital violence. The results indicate that marriage is an important life goal in most African societies, especially for women and that certain conditions linked to high-risk sexual behaviors, HIV and conjugal violence play an important role in the dynamics of marital relationships.
