legal regimes differ in outlining the method of contribution to the household, financial maintenance, and the division of property after separation/divorce. Some legal regimes, following the CEDAW’ s regime, look for an egalitarian regime which rules for similar rights and responsibilities for both parties and partial community of properties between spouses through which economic advantages and disadvantages related to marriage and dissolution of marriage should be born equally by both parties. Another group of legal regimes establishes separation of properties as the guiding principle for marital economic relationship in which the expenses should be borne by men as the heads of the household and women should be compensated for her unpaid contribution to the household. This research will focus on Iran’ s legal system, which follows Sharia (Islamic law) in separation of properties and ruling for compensation of unpaid contribution of women to household. The research compares Iran’ s legal system and Quebec’ s laws as an example of egalitarian regime and evaluate if Iran’ s family law could integrate community regime in its family law with regard to the Sharia principles and its Islamic family law. And which criteria should be considered by Iranian legislator if desire to adopt community regime.

This study aimed to examine the psychometric properties (validity and reliability) of the listening style scale in couples. The research method was descriptive correlational. The statistical population consisted of all couples in Isfahan. Of these, 200 persons were selected through accessible sampling method and responded to couples' listening style questionnaires (duel, 2003) and the need for cognition (Kaciopo et al, 1984). In order to investigate the construct validity of this scale, was used of confirmatory factor analysis method, internal consistency and correlation with the questionnaire need for cognition and for the reliability of the scale, the Cronbach's alpha coefficient. The findings of the study indicated that the confirmatory factor analysis model indicated the appropriate fitting of the research data with the functional structure of the listening style scale. Also, the internal consistency method expresses the structure validity of this scale. The obtained Cronbach's alpha coefficient also indicates the stability of the listening style scale. Correlation coefficients was significant between comprehension listening style and need for cognition at the level of 0. 01 and with respond listening style at the level of 0. 05. Based on these results, we can use the listening style scale of duel as a suitable measurement tool in couples research.

The present study aims to assess the mediating role of meta-emotion in the relationship between infertility stigma and psychological distress with the quality of marital relationship in infertile women. A total of 170 infertile women were selected among infertile women referred to Ahvaz University Jihad Infertility Center during the months of September to November 2018. The women completed Infertility Stigma Scale (ISS), the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K-10), Glombok-Rust Inventory of Marital State Questionnaire (GRIMS) and meta-emotions scale (MES). The research design of this study was correlation, through structural equation modeling. The results supported the suitability of the relationship between the patterns and the collected data. The results revealed that positive meta-emotion and negative meta-emotion mediated the infertility stigma and psychological distress on quality of marital relationship (p<0/05). However, the direct path of psychological distress with quality of marital relationship and positive meta-emotion were not confirmed and the final model was removed. Based on the results, meta-emotion can be effective in controlling and managing the negative emotions caused by infertility and the resulting psychological distress and ultimately leads to improved quality of marital relationship.

The current research was done with the aim of exploring couple strategies in the face of marital conflict. The data were collected using semi-structured interviews with 40 married women and men who were recruited using purposive method. According to the grounded theory approach, the data were analyzed by dipping into the data, ongoing comparison, and encoding. According to the findings, the contributing factors for marital conflict are: disagreement, unmet needs, stressful situations, conflicting behaviors, dishonesty, spouse's mistakes, cyberspace, community attendance, communication with families-of-origin, and unfavorable economic conditions. In such situations, people adopt such strategies as dialogue, need identification, assistance, etiology, lack of warning, timing, understanding communicational needs, non-positioning, not shaming, etc. One can conclude that although the occurrence of conflicts in marriages is unavoidable, the adopted strategies of the spouses in face with these disputing grounds might eliminate the effects of these conflicts and contribute to positive outcomes like increased intimacy, personality evolution, making opportunities, increased respect, etc.

Social developments are among the most important areas of research in the social sciences. An agreement on divorce in the Iranian society is one example of the transformation of the family and marriage institutions. In this paper, we try to understand and analyze the process of changing this phenomenon with its social construction. For this purpose, the "analytical realism" approach, and in particular the "voluntary action theory", was used by American structuralism sociologist Talcott Parsons. The method used in this research is qualitative and is of secondary analysis type and has been used to collect data from previous surveys and research. Findings of the research indicate that a divorce agreement is influenced by two objective and subjective social contexts of social construction. Its mental context relates to the evolution of the patterns of conjugation and the change in the structure of the authority of the family and its objective context in the context of family litigation proceedings in the family courts as well as the world-wide sexuality of the world today.

The rapid developments in medical studies have created some challenges in some areas such as artificial insemination, transplant, etc. One of these challenges relates to legal issues of transsexual people affecting all regulations particularly famaily law area. there are some forgotten and unseen aspects in the statutory laws. One of the questions in this regard relates to the effect of sex reassignment surgery (SRS) on the crimes committed prior to this evolution and how it can effects to the issued punishments. This article is to study the effect of sexual transition on some crimes like marriage with an immature girl, fraud in marriage, and desertion. It seems that the parliament should pay more attention to such matters specially regarding to the public order and public interests, although before that on the basis of legality and its consequences, and according to some reasonable doubts, the punishment should be dismissed.
