  • Title: The consequences of early marriage on marital dissolution.
    Author: Witt DD, Davidson B, Sollie DL, Lowe GD, Peek CW.
    Journal: Sociol Spectr; 1987; 7(3):191-207. PubMed ID: 12280708.
    Abstract:
    This study is concerned with the negative effects of early marriage on marital stability. "The focus on this paper is an analysis of a path model which includes the estimated effects of antecedents of early marriage, early marriage and education on the probability of divorce. Findings using the [U.S.] General Social Surveys support research that suggests that early marriage is the most important varialbe influencing divorce. Further, little influence of the early marriage measure through education was found."
