“…Moreover, it is evidenced that mother-adolescent relationship is positively correlated with attitudes towards marriage, where inability to maintain affectionate relationship with mothers will negatively affect attitudes towards marriage among adolescents (Petani, 2011). Supporting the past literatures, the current study affirms significant relationship between GAMS, inter-parental conflict, and mother-adolescent relationship in the expected correlation pattern.…”

Attitudes towards marriage in adolescence may influence the relationship quality in later years. There exist many measures of attitudes towards marriage which were validated among adolescents from two-parent family in the Western context. There is a need to validate measure of attitudes towards marriage in different countries. This study examined the psychometric properties of the Malay version of General Attitudes towards Marriage Scale (GAMS) in a sample of 480 adolescents from divorced families in Malaysia. Exploratory factor analysis yielded a two-factor structure of GAMS, which explained for 60% of the variance. Additionally, the two-factor structure of GAMS demonstrated good fit to data in the confirmatory factor analysis (TLI=.941, CFI=.958, RMSEA=.087, and χ 2 / df = 4.615). Overall, the GAMS exhibited good internal consistency (α = .901), which supports the reliability of the instrument. The significant relationships between GAMS and other constructs also provided evidences to the convergent validity (r = .761, p < .001 with intent to marry, r = -.170, p < .001 with overt inter-parental conflict, and r = .523, p < .001 with mother-adolescent relationship).Significant gender difference was found in the report of GAMS (t=-2.265, p<.05). Thus, the translated GAMS is a reliable, valid, and practical instrument to measure attitudes towards marriage among Malaysian adolescents in divorced family setting.
