Abstract :
Since the decision to get married is one of the most important decisions and marriage is one of the necessities of human life, it is necessary to study the factors affecting the unwillingness to get married among young people. This study aimed at investigating the effect of family communication patterns and materialism with unwillingness to get married among students. The correlational research method and the statistical population included all single students of Tabriz Azad University in the academic year of 2018-2019, among which 300 people were selected by available sampling method. Assessment instruments included a student marriage willingness questionnaire (Heydari et al., 2004), a family communication model questionnaire (Fitzpatrick and Ritchie, 1994), and a materialism questionnaire (Ritchen and Davoson, 1992). Data were statistically analyzed using Pearson correlation coefficient and regression analysis. The results showed that the dimension of communication and listening of communication patterns were related with the dimensions of success, focus, happiness, materialism and reluctance to get married among students. The results of regression analysis showed that family communication and materialism patterns had the most impact on students' unwillingness to get married, respectively.
