The social and economic determinants of separation and divorce were studied using a national sample of 5,000 women aged 30 to 44 who were interviewed annually from l967 to l97l. A subsample of about 3,500 nonfarm women who were married with their husbands present in l967 was extracted from the data. The characteristics of the women who remained married until l97l were compared statistically with the characteristics of the women who separated or divorced.
