The aim of this study is to investigate the family variables, including domicile, parents' education, their age, the type of work they do, family size, and family income. As to the social responsibility's dimensions for sample selected for this study; hence, it includes personal, ethical, national, environmental, health, and social responsibility. The current study adopted the descriptive approach along with a demographic data form and the social responsibility's scale. The sample selected consisted of 330 female students from various colleges within King Abdulaziz University. The results indicated that there was an impact on all the variables, thus such impact was in favor of those living in rural areas as to the ethical dimension and in favor of urban people as to the dimensions of accountability, parents' level of education, parents' seniority, working mothers, greater family size, and higher income.展开更多

Changes in urban family structure differ from those in rural areas. In the former, the share of nuclear families has fallen, with a marked rise in single-person families and a slight fall in linear families. In the latter, there has been quite a large fall in the share of nuclear families and an increase in the share of single-person and linear families. Changes in the secondary family structure also show some differences. Population mobility, number of children, population aging, and marriage and housing conditions have a marked effect on the evolution of family structure. In an era when small families are dominant, the government and various social organizations should enhance public services for families; review the household registration system to lessen the regional separation of workers from other family members; and create conditions for improving intergenerational relations.展开更多
