| Summary: | Objective: The objective of the present study was to elucidate a model of childbearing predicated on demographic variables and personality characteristics, emphasizing the role of religiosity among married partners.
Methods: This investigation is characterized as descriptive-survey in relation to its practical objectives and methodologies for data acquisition. The statistical population encompassed all married individuals residing in the city of Khomein during the year 2024, from which a sample of 232 participants was extracted utilizing a simple random sampling technique. Data were collected through Glock and Stark's religiosity scale and a personality traits inventory. Analytical procedures were performed using SPSS version 22 and PLS version 4 software. Results: The findings indicated that childbearing exerts a significant influence on religiosity and personality traits, with this relationship being reinforced both directly and indirectly through the mediation of religiosity. Furthermore, religiosity positively impacts personality traits. Additionally, the results revealed that demographic factors do not significantly affect childbearing.
Conclusions: In light of the research findings, it is reasonable to conclude that religious values and personality traits constitute influential factors concerning the intention to procreate, and enhancing these variables may effectively augment the propensity to have children. |
