Two developmental factors, women's education and their work participation, are emerging as especially critical catalysts for bringing about changes in other aspects of women's life and behavior, including their marital patterns ([McDonald], 1985; Isiugo-Abanihe et al, 1993). The above two factors, to varying degrees, have been instrumental in pushing up the age at marriage, and impacting the type of marriage a woman enters.

Since marital fertility involves the participation of the wife and husband who may differ in their reproductive goals (in terms of number and sex composition of children as well as timing of pregnancy and childbirth) joint decision making regarding family size and use of contraception requires effective communications between marital partners.
