The Intergenerational Transmission of Marital Instability: Comparisons by Race and Sex Journal of Social Issues 32,1 (Winter 1976): 49-65. Also: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1540-4560.1976.tb02479.x/abstract Cohort(s): Mature Women Publisher: Plenum Publishing Corporation Keyword(s): Divorce; Fertility; Intergenerational Patterns/Transmission; Marital Instability; Mortality The authors examine the intergenerational transmission of marital instability. Those respondents whose parental homes were disrupted by death or divorce have higher rates of marital instability in their own marriages. Except for black males, a greater transmission effect was found among respondents from childhood homes disrupted by divorce or separation rather than death. Implications from the literature on sex-role learning in children are examined by comparing the transmission effect for respondents who lived in households of different composition after having their parental homes disrupted. |
