Literature Review Attitudes toward marriage has changed during the last three decades in many different places around the world. Modernism has taken a big part in the current era and influenced almost every aspect of life including relationships arrangements. Civil marriage and cohabitation (an arrangement where two people who are not married live together in an intimate relationship) are quite prevalent nowadays and in some places couples even choose to bring children without getting married. However, many couples these days still choose to marry. The perceptions being held toward marriage might have changed, yet the institution of marriage in Israel is still stable. Even though there is a growing number in divorce it seems that most couples still chose to marry or even remarry. If that is the case then what could be the reasons which lead couples to marriage? Religion One of the factors which influences people's attitude toward marriage is religion. Some people believe it is important to marry because it is a tradition and in some cases a duty. In Vietnam marriage is seen as an integral, essential part of life. Marriage is still considered by many as a filial duty and choosing not to marry was seen as failing that duty. In the Philippines most women and men valued the notion of marriage, the culture is still very conservative and the wedding is still important (Williams, 2005). People who attend religious services at least once a month hold significantly more traditional views about marriage and children (Gubernskaya, 2010). Despite the persistent cross-national and socio-demographic differences in support for marriage and children at any given time point, there is a general trend toward greater non-traditionalism in different countries (Gubernskaya, 2010). Education Another factor apart from religion is education. Education has an influence on the educated individual's attitudes toward marriage as it exposes them to non traditional ideas about family and gender role (Gubernskaya, 2010). In comparison to less educated Japanese women, highly educated Japanese women marry at older ages or even forego marriage. There are approximately one quarter lower chances for junior college and university graduates to get marry than those who don't attend higher education. It is interesting that the chances of marriage reduce among highly educated women who find it difficult to combine career and family (Raymo, 2003). Raymo found that chances of marriage among cohorts, couples who live together without getting married, were the lowest for the most highly educated. In conclusion, there is a clear relation between higher education, whether university or college, and later or even less marriage (Raymo, 2003). Women, never married, better educated, employed and relatively secularized hold less traditional views about marriage and children (Gubernskaya, 2010). Country Context People's attitudes toward marriage are also influecned by contextual factors. In the Netherlands, there is no difference between cohabitants and married couples as far as legal rights are concerned (Fokkema, 2008 in; Gubernskaya, 2010). It was found that in the U.S during the period of time between 1994-2002 while pro-marriage policies were introduced, women held less traditional views about marriage (Coltrane, 2001 in; Gubernskaya, 2010). Attitudes toward marriage among Thai people were negative and they claimed that if relationship fail it is easier to split up when not being married than when being so (Williams, 2005). Despite the differences, in different countries and for all socio-demographic groups people hold less traditional attitudes toward marriage (Gubernskaya, 2010). Method The selected research methodology was mostly quantitative since the aim of the research was to explore the different attitudes and perceptions toward marriage. Sample Undergraduate students of education from Israel were asked to participate in the research. The student sample was collected at Levinsky College of Education. Levinsky College of Education is located in Tel Aviv, Israel. The college populates 5,000 students, who study Education. The relationships between me and the participants were created due to different courses we study together at college. In terms of demographics, the participants (N=30) were 25 women and five men, most of them live in the center of Israel. 22 were single and 8 married. Most participants (N=28) were Jewish Israelis, and two were Muslim Arabic. 11 participants were secular, nine traditional, and ten religious. 22 participants complete their bachelor degree, while the rest study for certification or second degree. The age range was between 20-43 years old. The Survey Instrument Self-report questionnaires were used to collect the data. The survey was in Hebrew since most of the participants were Non English speakers. The participants were asked whether they would like to fill in a questionnaire regarding the topic of attitudes to
