Data have been collected from both rural and urban women to get a comparative picture of age at marriage using the face-to-face interview technique. From the findings of the regression analysis of this study, it was found that all the independent variables in combination explain 37.4 percent variance of the dependent variable in rural area. The explanatory power of the regression analysis model for urban area was more powerful in comparison to rural area. It was found that all the independent variables in combination, explained 48.8 percent variance of the dependent variable. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Khulna University Studies, 9(1), p. 139-146 | Publisher: | Khulna University | Place of Publication: | India | ISSN: | 1563-0897 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 119999 Medical and Health Sciences not elsewhere classified | Socio-Economic Objective (SEO) 2008: | 929999 Health not elsewhere classified | Peer Reviewed: | Yes | HERDC Category Description: | C1 Refereed Article in a Scholarly Journal | Publisher/associated links: | http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/45598777 |
