Early Adulthood Practice Exam

What is a global trend in marriage?

Individuals are marrying later or not at all. Marriages are becoming more numerous. People marry younger than in the past. More marriages are arranged by families.

Correct Answer:

Individuals are marrying later or not at all.

Explanation:

People are marrying later or not at all. As societies modernize, people invest more in education and careers, especially women, and face higher costs of forming a household. This often leads to delaying marriage and, in many places, choosing not to marry at all. In contrast, global marriage tends not to be rising; marrying younger, more marriages, or widespread family-arranged marriages do not reflect the main current trend.
