  • Title: Demographic determinants of delayed divorce.
    Author: Chan LY, Heaton TB.
    Journal: J Divorce; 1989; 13(1):97-112. PubMed ID: 12316281.
    Abstract:
    This study identifies factors that predict delayed divorce in the US. The findings show that factors which influence marital stability in general also correlate with delayed divorce in the same direction. Wife's age at marriage, age of the youngest child, wife's religion, region of residence, and metropolitan residence have substantial effects of delayed divorce, but the effects of race, parental divorce, premarital pregnancy, and socioeconomic status are small.
