    abstract = {Early marriage is a complex phenomenon in Bangladesh due to 
  various factors. It is found that complex set of relationship exists among the 
  various socioeconomic, cultural and demographic events, which affect the fertility 
  in Bangladesh and can provide us a preliminary idea of how important each variable 
  is by itself. Result shows that women in Bangladesh engage in sexual activities 
  at an early age before 20 years. Early marriage has a significant effect on 
  divorce and remarriage and late marriage is also, associated with a significant 
  increase in female schooling, adult literacy and quality of marital life. Islam 
  religion has a more tendency to early marry. Findings need to be scientifically 
  used in suitable programs addressing the case of fertility control in the developing 
  countries as well as in Bangladesh.}
