Education, Age at Marriage, and Marital Duration: Is There a Relationship?

Maneker, Jerry S.; Rankin, Robert P.

Journal of Marriage and the Family, v47 n3 p675-83 Aug 1985

A random sample of all divorce cases in California in 1977 provides the database for this study of variations in marital duration. The hypotheses that marital duration in a divorcing population has a positive relationship to age at marriage and degree of formal education are not supported. (Author/BL)
