Outcomes of Marital Separation: A Longitudinal Test of Predictors Journal of Marriage and Family 50,2 (May 1988): 493-498. Also: http://www.jstor.org/stable/352014 Cohort(s): Mature Women Publisher: National Council on Family Relations Keyword(s): Divorce; Education; Marital Stability; Marital Status; NLS Description Studies of marital separation have often combined it with divorce or assumed that separation represents only a stepping stone to other marital statuses. This analysis examines three types of separation: those leading to divorce, those leading to reconciliation, and long-term unresolved separations. Demographic variables are used to predict which women, out of those reporting any period of separation during a 15-year longitudinal panel, move toward each outcome. Data from the NLS cohort of Mature Women from 1967-1982, analyzed with logit techniques, show important differences among these groups of separating women in education, income, and race. |
