Spouse selection among blind and visually impaired people is associated with numerous concerns. It is an emotional, social and sexual need that creates some changes in the lives of blind and visually impaired people. To this end, the present study explored spouse selection concerns among men with visual impairments (VI).<br> <strong>Methods</strong>: This study adopted a qualitative-descriptive phenomenological approach. The study participants were selected through purposive sampling among visually impaired men who were members of the blind and visually impaired association of Iran, Markazi Province, Arak Branch in 2023. The study data were collected through 17 semi-structured interviews and were analyzed using Colaizzi’s 7-step data analysis method.<br> <strong>Results</strong>: The analysis of the data showed that the spouse selection in blind and visually impaired men was associated with four main themes: “Negative feelings and disappointment in marriage,” “lack of support and financial resources,” “negative public stigma,” and “need for a mate.” <br> <strong>Conclusion</strong>: This study has provided insights into mate selection concerns of visually impaired men in Arak City, Iran. The lived experiences of blind and partially sighted men about marriage and love presented an accurate picture of their worries and concerns in choosing a spouse, which can help identify the concerns of this group in society.</div> </div> <div class="yw_text_small" > <strong>Keywords: </strong> <a href='search.php?sid=1&slc_lang=en&srchterm=Spouse+%28mate%29+selection'>Spouse (mate) selection</a>, <a href='search.php?sid=1&slc_lang=en&srchterm=Visual+impairment+%28VI%29'>Visual impairment (VI)</a>, <a href='search.php?sid=1&slc_lang=en&srchterm=Male'>Male</a> </div> <div class="yw_text_small" dir="ltr" > <a href="./article-1-567-en.pdf" > <span class="abstract_title" dir="ltr" ><strong>Full-Text<span dir=ltr> [PDF 573 kb]</span> </strong> </span> </a> <a href="" target="_blank"> <strong></strong></a> <a href="" target="_blank"> </a>   <span class="persian"><span dir=ltr> (246 Downloads)</span> </span> |   |   <strong><a href='browse.php?a_id=567&sid=1&slc_lang=en&html=1'> <span class='abstract_title'> Full-Text (HTML)</span></a></strong>  <span dir=ltr> (167 Views)</span> <strong></strong>  </div> <div style="vertical-align:middle" class="yw_text_small abstract" dir="ltr" > Type of Study: <a href='search.php?sid=1&slc_lang=en&atcl=1&type=10'>Research</a> | Subject: <a href='search.php?sid=1&slc_lang=en&atcl=1&abst_subject=11'>Special</a> <br>Received: 2023/12/17 | Accepted: 2024/04/20 | Published: 2024/08/1 </div> <div class="yw_text_small" > </div> <hr> <div class="yw_text_small" align="center" > <form name="form1" method="post" action="./forms.php?mod=add_cnt_comments_atcl&mycnt_id=&slc_lang=en&sid=1&a_code=A-10-33-22&a_ordnum=567"> <div class="yw_text_small" align="center" > Add your comments about this article : Your username or Email: <input name="user_prop" onfocus="if (this.value == 'Your Name or Email') {this.value = '';}" dir="ltr" type="text" id="user_prop" value="Your Name or Email" size="20" maxlength="40"> <br> <textarea style="width:100%;" dir="ltr" name="cmnt_body" cols="60" rows="2" id="cmnt_body"></textarea><input name='the_userext_yw' type='hidden'> </div> <div class="yw_text_small" align="center" > <div class="pad5"> <img src="captcha_yekta.php?rnd=55030960" alt="CAPTCHA" style="min-width: 120px; min-height: 35px" class="captcha-image" width="130px" height="35px"> <i class="refresh-captcha"><img style="cursor:pointer;" src="./files/0allsites/panel/pan/icon_refresh.png"></i> <script> var refreshButton = document.querySelector(".refresh-captcha"); refreshButton.onclick = function() { document.querySelector(".captcha-image").src = 'captcha_yekta.php?rnd=' + Date.now(); $("#captcha_code").removeClass("input_alarm").removeClass("input_verified").val(""); } $(window).bind("pageshow", function() { document.querySelector(".captcha-image").src = 'captcha_yekta.php?rnd=' + Date.now(); $("#captcha_code").removeClass("input_alarm").removeClass("input_verified").val(""); }); function check_captcha(){ var $this = $("#captcha_code"); my_url = "./captcha.chk.ajax.php"; if(typeof ajax_request_captcha !== "undefined") { ajax_request_captcha.abort(); } ajax_request_captcha = $.ajax( { type: "POST", url: my_url, data: { "captcha_code" : $this.val() }, dataType: "json", success:check_captcha_response, error:end_error_gen }); function check_captcha_response(response) { var status = response.status; if(status=="true") { $this.addClass("input_verified").removeClass("input_alarm"); if ($(".captcha_submit").length) { $(".captcha_submit").fadeIn(); } } else if(status=="wrong") { $this.addClass("input_alarm").removeClass("input_verified"); if ($(".captcha_submit").length) { $(".captcha_submit").fadeOut(); } swal("Incorrect Captcha Code", "You have wrote wrong security code in the box.
