This quantitative-descriptive study explored the effect of
relocation cn wives, of employees of an Eastern Cape motor
manufacturing company, who were relocated during the
period July 1991 to November 1993. Specifically, it aimed
to identify the coping behaviour of two samples of such
wives, those of employees ./ho were relocated from overseas
(international group) and those who were relocated from
within South Africa (national group). A control group,
comprised of wives of employees who f had not relocated
within the last ten or more years, was utilised. The study
made use of three research tools: a structured interview
schedule compiled by the researcher, the Beck's (1981)
Depression Inventory and the Hudson's (1982) Index of
Marital Satisfaction.
