The association between happiness and marital status approached significance ( F = 2.987, p = .054, η 2 p = 0.048).
The association between happiness and marital status approached significance ( F = 2.987, p = .054, η 2 p = 0.048).
In preliminary analysis, we found that happiness showed marginally significant differences between the three marital status groups (single, married, and divorced or separated or widowed as recorded by self-report), and therefore marital status was also included as a covariate.
