The couple is a dynamic structure made up of an interacting system of two components, which make up a social system that forms the family, the nucleus of socialization. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, changes have been generated in coexistence, allowing problems that affect the functioning of each of the components within the couple itself and other systems. The present investigation consisted of a sample of 325 cohabiting people belonging to different departments of Bolivia. The Spanier Marital Adjustment Scale and the Marital Problems Scale constructed by the researchers were used; both showed optimal levels of reliability. The presence of dissatisfaction due to the use of technological communication resources was evidenced, as well as another problem referred to the distribution of roles in household chores. Likewise, verbal violence has a more accentuated incidence than physical violence, meaning that the more verbal violence the partner has, the greater the dissatisfaction. The influence of satisfaction levels was also detected among the most relevant factors: cultural difference, jealousy, partner's mental illness, own mental illness and finally the partner's alcohol consumption. The inclusion of the spouse in personal activities and the organization of the use of money were established as favorable elements of satisfaction.
