This study investigates factors that could explain why the association between the egalitarian gender-role attitudes and the attitudes toward the importance of marriage (marital centrality) differs across societies. Using data from the International Social Survey Programme for 24 countries in 2002 and 2012 and multilevel modeling, we explore whether the Gender Revolution and the Second Demographic Transition frameworks could explain the country-level differences in the association between gender-role attitudes and marital centrality. We find that the negative association between the egalitarian gender-role attitudes and marital centrality is stronger in countries with a higher gender equality level and a higher fertility level. This work highlights the importance of considering the progress of the gender revolution and the second demographic transition to understand the relationship between gender equality and family formation.

这项研究调查了可以解释为什么平等社会性别角色的态度与对婚姻重要性（婚姻中心性）的态度之间的联系在各个社会之间不同的因素。使用2002年和2012年国际社会调查计划针对24个国家/地区的数据以及多级建模，我们探索了性别革命和第二次人口转型框架是否可以解释性别角色态度与婚姻中心性之间联系的国家级差异。我们发现，在性别平等水平较高和生育水平较高的国家中，平等性别角色态度与婚姻中心地位之间的负相关关系更强。
