  • Title: Recent nuptiality trends and patterns in Kuwait.
    Author: Kohli KL, Al-omaim M.
    Journal: Biol Soc; 1990 Jun; 7(2):81-93. PubMed ID: 12316315.
    Abstract:
    "Comparison of marriage data from the five-yearly censuses in Kuwait from 1970 to 1985, and vital statistics, show trends in marriage. Age at first marriage increased for women, but there was little change in men, so there was a narrowing of the age difference between spouses. There is a new tendency emerging for Kuwaiti males to marry non-Kuwaiti females. These changes are attributed to increasing education and employment of women, urbanisation and modernisation, and appear to be leading to a decline in fertility."
