Abstract

he purpose of this research is to qualitatively study the phenomenon of early marriage of girls using grounded theory method. This research was conducted with a qualitative method and a data-based theory approach. The studied population was married women of Puldekhtar villages. The sampling method was also "purposive and theoretical sampling". The tool of data collection was "in-depth interview", based on which theoretical saturation was achieved after interviewing 18 of these women. In order to analyze the data, the "Osterus and Corbin" approach was used, and based on it, three stages of open, central and selective coding were used for data analysis. The findings show that the central phenomenon of this research is "early marriage as subjugation". The causal conditions governing this phenomenon include "gender collective unconscious and fear of absolute celibacy". Background conditions include "social supervision as a social blockage, marriage as a moral normative tour and fatalism" and the intervening conditions on the central phenomenon are: "competitive tendencies, inefficiency of university education, livelihood thinking and calculationism". The strategy in facing this phenomenon is "surrender and adaptation" and its consequence is "inhibition from education, dominance and violence, sexual exploitation and mental and motivational crisis".
