Abstract | ||
The main objective of this study was to identify the rural wives' attitudes toward More Children Reproduction at Shabas Elmalh village. A systematic random sample of 111 rural wives were personally interviewed by using a questionnaire to collect the data. The wives' attitudes toward More Children Reproduction were measured as a dependent variable by using a dichotomous measure. The discriminate analysis technique was used to compare between the two groups of the dependent variable. That is, approvals vs. oppositions considering 9 discriminating variables. The results indicated that there were significant differences between the rural wives of the two groups regarding five discriminating variables. The discriminating variables explained 41.2% of the discrimination between the two groups. The classification results revealed that 81.1% of the rural wives were correctly classified according to the discriminating variables. The probability of group membership calculated by tau was reached around 62.2%. | ||
