| Description | This study examined the role of marital attitudes in the transition from cohabitation to marriage and compare the strength of this association between Western and Eastern Europe. It extends the literature on the relationship trajectories of cohabiters by drawing attention to the normative context that may shape cohabiters’ opportunities and constrain behavioural choice in the marriage formation process. Ultimately, it contributes to an understanding of the consequences of the societal diffusion of cohabitation in Europe. |
