“…Additional inspection of the data revealed that this finding is related to the low educational levels of migrant populations, who are much more likely to marry than cohabit. This result is also in line with previous research on Austria by Berghammer et al (2014).…”

A key demographic trend of the past decades has been the increasing share of first births occurring outside marriage. In analysing the factors associated with this trend, scholars have tended to focus on the characteristics of only one of the parents, typically the mother. This study examines the pathways to parenthood from a couple's perspective, focusing on the role of educational pairings; i.e. the combination of his and her education. Using a multistate approach, we examine the connection between educational pairings and the occurrence of the first birth inside or outside marriage for 12 European countries. We find that the presence of at least one highly educated partner lowers the likelihood of a non-marital first birth. Strikingly, it does not matter whether it is he or she who has the highest level of education.

“…For example, in the Austrian focus groups, participants implicitly drew on their perception of the life course as they discussed how cohabitation is ideal for young adults, when freedom and independence are highly valued, and marriage is preferable later in life when individuals desire stability and less risk (Berghammer, Fliegenschnee, and Schmidt 2014). This important finding suggests that individuals in Austria do not think about cohabitation and marriage as alternatives per se, but as relationships that are appropriate at successive stages of the life course.…”

“…Berghammer, Fliegenschnee, and Schmidt (2014) find that in Austria the individualization thesis tends to apply best in early adulthood when young people are pursuing a range of opportunities, value freedom, and are more likely to choose cohabitation, as described above. As people mature, they become less oriented towards the self, because older adults value security, commitment, and mutual support, which is more likely to occur in marriage.…”

Introduction: Investigation on spiritual issue in healthcare practice received less attention. Muslims valued pray activity or known as salat as one of the important daily activity. However, negligible study is available on salat as the end goal of occupational therapy intervention. This study aims to investigate the awareness and the impact of Muslim-culture on occupational therapists in Malaysia. Methods: A cross-sectional survey study was conducted via internet-based and manual paper-andpencil survey throughout occupational therapists in Malaysia. Descriptive and inferential statistics using percentage, Cronbach's alpha and Chi-square was implemented on the findings. Results: In total, 119 occupational therapists responded. The questionnaire has overall internal consistency of α = 0.74. Occupational therapists have positive perceptions on spiritual activity but poorly translated into service implementation and faced challenges. Factors such as level of education, years of experience, religion, working location and work setting were significant on the awareness, perception, practice and challenges. Cultural-based practice is challenging for occupational therapy even in the majority-practice context. Occupational therapists should differentiate between belief and activity in spiritual issue to provide a better assistance for the clients. Conclusion: This study showed continuing education is desired to drive the occupational therapy profession for a better cultural-sensitivity service delivery.
