This study examines the effect of education, employment, and income on reproductive attitudes and behavior of United Arab Emirates married women. A sample of 1030 married women from the country's seven Emirates were selected and interviewed by female researchers. To achieve the study's objectives, descriptive and inferential statistics were used. Although it is found that the effect of education, employment, and income on reproductive attitudes and behavior is more complicated than previously thought in the literature, the results indicate no significant effect of education, employment and income on respondents' reproductive attitudes and behavior.Keywords reproductive attitudes, behavior, education, employment, income.

This study explores levels of concern about the environment in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Data for the study were obtained from the 2019 ‘Levels of Concern about the Environment in the UAE’ survey. A convenience sample of 1520 respondents were selected, contacted and interviewed by research assistants. Per the study’s findings, respondents did endorse three out of five dimensions of the Revised NEW Ecological Paradigm scale including the anthropocentric view of nature, balance of nature, and the possibility of eco-crisis. Nevertheless, respondents failed to support the other two dimensions of the given paradigm: limit to growth and human Exemptionalism.

This study examined the extent to which marital happiness in the UAE can be correctly predicted from the knowledge of individuals’ subjective evaluations of their marital relational factors, including communication patterns, conflict resolution, marital role relationships, managing finance, children’s responsibilities sharing, and flexibility and closeness while holding constant the effects of the socioeconomic and demographic characteristics of those individuals. To that end, self-administered questionnaires and in-depth interviews were conducted by trained research assistants. The study revealed important insights corresponding to marital happiness in the UAE, and predicted a number of factors that appeared to significantly predict this very important issue in society, in particular, communication patterns and conflict resolution style.
