Abstract

Abstract The aim of this study is to investigate factors associated with the applications of child marriage dispensation submitted to the Religious Courts during the COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia, particularly in 2019–2021. The number of child marriage dispensation cases was analyzed together with other socioeconomic variables, including poverty and jobless rates, junior and senior high school completion rates, number of cerai talak (a divorce initiated by the husband) and cerai gugat (a divorce initiated by the wife) applications, number of COVID-19 positive cases, and number of deaths by COVID-19. The differences between 2021 and 2019 were analyzed using the paired t -test and repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA). The relationship between variables was analyzed using the Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient. Hierarchical multiple regression with the entering method was used to determine the predictors of the number of child marriage dispensation cases in the years 2019, 2020, and 2021 and the change from 2019 to 2021. New dispensation underage marriage applications in 2019, 2020, and 2021 were 24,457 ( M =843, SD =1519), 63,391 ( M = 2186, SD = 4085), and 62,167 ( M = 2144, SD = 4058), which were significantly different ( F (1.0, 28.6) = 7.63, p = .01) and positively correlated with poverty rate, jobless rate, cerai talak , cerai gugat , COVID-19 positive cases, and COVID-19 death cases. The multiple regression analysis for the change of dispensation underage marriage applications in the pandemic and before (years 2021–2019) was statistically significant, ( F (6,22) = 117.62, p < .001), which the final model was able to account for 97% of the variance in new dispensation underage marriage applications. Collaborative multi-sector works are needed to decrease the skyrocketing child marriage numbers, especially in a crisis situation like the COVID-19 pandemic.

2019冠状病毒病大流行期间印度尼西亚童婚的相关因素

本研究的目的是调查2019-2021年印度尼西亚COVID-19大流行期间，特别是2019-2021年期间，向宗教法院提交的童婚豁免申请的相关因素。童婚豁免案例的数量与其他社会经济变量一起进行了分析，包括贫困和失业率、初中和高中毕业率、离婚申请(丈夫提出的离婚)和离婚申请(妻子提出的离婚)的数量、COVID-19阳性病例的数量以及COVID-19导致的死亡人数。使用配对t检验和重复测量方差分析(ANOVA)分析2021年和2019年之间的差异。使用Pearson积矩相关系数分析变量之间的关系。采用分层多元回归法，确定了2019年、2020年和2021年童婚案件数量的预测因子以及2019 - 2021年的变化。2019年、2020年和2021年新登记未成年人结婚申请分别为24457例(M =843, SD =1519)、63391例(M = 2186, SD = 4085)和62167例(M = 2144, SD = 4058)，差异有统计学意义(F (1.0, 28.6) = 7.63, p = 0.01)，与贫困率、失业率、谈话率、谈话率、COVID-19阳性病例和COVID-19死亡病例呈正相关。多元回归分析疫情期间和疫情前(2021-2019年)未成年人结婚申请的变化有统计学意义(F (6,22) = 117.62, p <.001)，最终的模型能够解释97%的新豁免未成年人结婚申请的差异。要减少急剧上升的童婚数字，特别是在COVID-19大流行等危机形势下，需要多部门合作开展工作。

期刊介绍： Rationale The importance to study and understand Islam and contemporary Muslim life from a socio-scientific perspective seems more relevant than ever. Currently, there is no specific journal that offers a platform for discussion on contemporary aspects of Islam and Muslims. Indeed, the historical, political and comparative approach to Islam has been preferred over social scientific research and themes. Contemporary Islam: Dynamics of Muslim Life aims to fill this gap by providing an active forum for the discussion of new ideas, fieldwork experiences, challenging views, and methodological and theoretical approaches to Muslim life. The journal is not a forum for normative reflections in Islamic theology or jurisprudence but approaches Islam as a lived tradition in today’s global societies. Topical and interdisciplinary Contemporary Islam: Dynamics of Muslim Life focuses on topical issues and takes an interdisciplinary approach that benefits from a cross-cultural perspective: articles will explore the relationship between Islam and its contemporary cultural, material, gender, economic, political, and religious expressions from different socio-scientific perspectives, such as anthropology, sociology, education, politics, international relations, ethnomusicology, arts, film studies, economics, human rights, international law, diaspora minority studies, demography, and ethics. Focus The journal provides insights into the contemporary dynamics of Muslim life by focusing on questions concerning ordinary aspects of everyday life of Muslims as well as more systemic concerns. The journal focuses on what Muslims actually do rather than what one reading or another of the texts suggest that they should do and therefore seeks papers on the lived experiences of Muslims in both Muslim minority and Muslim majority contexts. Contemporary Islam: Dynamics of Muslim Life regards Islam as a modern religion in today’s global societies. The journal is committed to publishing scholarship grounded in empirical research and comparison of relevance to the understanding of broader intellectual, social, legal, and political developments in contemporary Muslim societies.Articles making more general theoretical or comparative contributions are preferred over those narrowly focused on a single society. Papers based on single country or case must also speak to issues relevant to the study of Islam and Muslim culture/society beyond the country in question. To this end, reviewers are selected in such a way to help authors address audiences outside their niche within Islamic studies. Readership and Editorial Board As the first socio-scientific journal to focus on Muslim life, Contemporary Islam: Dynamics of Muslim Life will be of interest to scholars and students in various academic fields related to Islam and Muslim live across multiple cultures. The editorial board reflects the multidisciplinary and multi-national approach of the journal.Please read our Editorial Policies carefully before you submit your paper to this journal https://www.springer.com/gp/editorial-policies
