Abstract
Aspects of one‟s sexual behaviors, such as expectations, frequency, and types of behaviors affect one‟s sexual satisfaction. The current study investigated both sexual and non-sexual variables associated with sexual satisfaction.  Participants were asked to report the frequency of various specific sexual behaviors within their marital relationship, as well as non-sexual aspects of their lives such as religiosity and faith development.  Results indicated that certain specific sexual behaviors, such as kissing, oral sex, and engaging in sexual conversations, were more likely to be related to greater sexual satisfaction. Additionally, gender differences were found in some correlates of sexual satisfaction.
