Migration from less developed to more developed areas is the general pattern of migration in developing countries. Such migration is mainly done to increase the quality of life as a response to inter-regional inequalities. This study tries to answer the question of whether the migration affects the quality of life. The target population includes the heads of migrant families from Kouhdasht county living in Shahr-e-Ghods and their counterparts in the the country. The required information was obtained through a questionnaire using the survey method. Using the random sampling method, 400 households (200 migrants and 200 non-migrants) were selected. In order to test the research hypotheses, statistical techniques of t-test, chi-square and multivariate regression were applied. The results show that migrant families, on the whole, have a relatively better quality of life than their non-migrant counterparts. Those with less education and unemployed individuals have reported a higher quality of life. Inequality in the social and economic amenities between the two regions and differences in the social and economic characteristics of migrants and non-migrants are the main explanatory factors.

With the arrivalof modernityin Iranthe society normshave changedandtraditional patterns، especially family pattern، has been under various changes simultaneously. For instance، theaverage age of marriagefor girlshas increased over the past decades. This paper aims to determine and analyze factors affecting the gap in women’s behavior and attitudes on theappropriate age ofmarriage for girlsin the city of Koohdasht. Residents of this region ethnically and culturally belong to Lor and Lak ethnic groups. Lack of any knowledgeon marriage patterns ofwomen of these ethnic groups would necessitate this study. Data istaken from a survey conducted on a sample of 395 once-married women living in ordinary households atthe city of Koohdasht in April 2013. A combination of sampling techniques including multistage clustering and systematic random sampling were employed. Results indicated gaps in women’s behavior and their attitude on the appropriate age ofmarriage. The 63 percent of participants proposed a mean age of marriage for girls completely different to the age of their own marriage. The gaps are mostly in a negative direction. More than 80 percent of women took part in the test proposed a higher age for girls’ marriage compared to their own age of marriage. According to this study، socio-economic status of women، postmaterialist attitudes to marriage، women’s autonomy and age at the time of the study hadthe most impact on the rate of the gap between women’s behavior and attitudes on theappropriate age ofmarriage. The results also reflected the fact that the combination of socio-economic، demographic characteristics and ethnic-cultural factors could provide a better explanation forthe gap in women’s behavior and attitude on theage of marriage.
