If psychologists discovered that wealthy people are less satisfied with their marriages than poor people are, this would indicate that wealth and marital satisfaction are: a) causally related. b) negatively correlated. c) independent variables. d) dependent variablese) positively correlated.

B) negatively correlated.

Explanation:

The case is set, would reflect a negative correlation between wealth and marital satisfaction.

This means that not necessarily the wealth would cause marriages to report higher levels of happiness or satisfaction. This would imply that there is an inverse relationship between two variables - when one variable decreases, the other increases. So to the contrary, it would mean the opposite. Having less money would favor marital satisfaction.

It is so believed that money issues are important variables so, they should be reconsidered. In the case as stated having more money turns into less satisfaction of the pair.

A example that is similar to this as a negative correlation, is the birth of children, and mariage, since the condition creates stress that the new creature poses to the relationship  between the pair, that was often better treated.
