ruby - Pass parameter to Validation - Rails 3 -

we valid different sections via following code:

on_boarding_form.rb

  def valid?     @sections.all? {|section| section.valid?}   end 

this goes on_boarding_section_form.rb. checks

  validate     @fields.where(:required => true).where(:hidden => false).each |req_field|        if req_field.name.to_s == 'favor'         binding.remote_pry       end        if defined? land1         if land1 == 'be' && req_field.name.to_s == 'ort01'           # nothing         elsif land1 == 'be' && req_field.name.to_s == 'entk2'           # nothing         elsif land1 == 'be' && req_field.name.to_s == 'pstlz'           #validate postal code           @errors.add_on_blank(req_field.name.downcase.to_sym)         elsif land1  != 'be' && req_field.name.to_s == 'ort01'           @errors.add_on_blank(req_field.name.downcase.to_sym)         elsif land1  != 'be' && req_field.name.to_s == 'entk2'           @errors.add_on_blank(req_field.name.downcase.to_sym)         elsif land1  != 'be' && req_field.name.to_s == 'pstlz'           # nothing         else           @errors.add_on_blank(req_field.name.downcase.to_sym)         end       else         @errors.add_on_blank(req_field.name.downcase.to_sym)       end     end     @fields.where(:hidden => false).each |field|       next if field.field_type =~ /g/i       next if field.field_type =~ /d/i       next if field.field_type =~ /p/i       validates_with lengthvalidator, :attributes => field.name.downcase.to_sym, :in => 0..field.field_length     end   end 

in sections emergency contact need check if person married or not. if person married emergency contact fields should required.

now question in on_boarding_form.rb possible pass parameter on_boarding_section_form.rb can pass marital status.

thank you!
