Materials & Methods: The sample size included two groups of voluntary childless women (50 people) and women with children (50 people), who were selected through available sampling. Questionnaires of personality traits, attachment styles and life satisfaction questionnaires were used to collect data. The research data was analyzed using a multivariate analysis of variance test.
