Men face many challenges in their lives with adolescent girls that need to be identified. No research has been conducted in this field in Iran. This research aimed to explore the challenges of men married to adolescent girls in western Iran using a qualitative approach.
This research was conducted using qualitative methods and a conventional content analysis approach. Participants were 28 men in western Iran who had the experience of marrying girls under 18 years of age. Semi-structured interviews were used both face-to-face and over the phone to collect data. Also, snowballing and purposeful sampling were used to select the participants. The data were also analysed using Granheim and Lundman's approach.
From the data analysis, 1 category, 9 subcategories, and 103 primary codes were obtained. The main category was lack of empathy and consensus, which includes the subcategories of sexual dissatisfaction, girls' dependence on the family, inability to fulfill the roles of a wife, not being understood in life, remaining in the world of childhood, emotional divorce, limiting progress and preventing the achievement of goals, betrayal, and chaotic life.
Young couples problems can be solved by measures such as giving sex education and teaching skills necessary for married life, such as problem solving skills and anger control, to adolescent men and girls, as well as training families on how to properly support adolescent couples.
男性在与青春期女孩的生活中面临许多需要识别的挑战。伊朗尚未在该领域开展过研究。本研究旨在采用定性方法探索伊朗西部与青春期女孩结婚的男性所面临的挑战。
本研究采用定性方法和传统内容分析法。参与者为伊朗西部28名有与18岁以下女孩结婚经历的男性。通过面对面和电话方式进行半结构化访谈以收集数据。此外，采用滚雪球抽样和目的抽样法选取参与者。数据也采用格兰海姆和伦德曼的方法进行分析。
通过数据分析，获得了1个类别、9个子类别和103个原始编码。主要类别是缺乏同理心和共识，其中包括性方面不满；女孩对家庭的依赖；无法履行妻子角色；在生活中不被理解；停留在童年世界；情感离异；限制进步并阻碍目标实现；背叛；以及生活混乱等子类别。
通过诸如对青春期男性和女孩进行性教育、教授婚姻生活所需技能（如解决问题的技能和情绪控制）以及培训家庭如何正确支持青春期夫妻等措施，可以解决年轻夫妻存在的问题。
