White, Lynn; Keith, Bruce
Journal of Marriage and the Family, v52 n2 p453-62 May 1990
Interviewed a national panel of 1,668 married women and men in 1980 and 1983 to assess effects of shift work on 6 measures of marital quality (marital happiness, interaction, disagreements, general problems, sexual problems, and child-related problems) and probability of divorce. Results suggested that shift work has a modest but general adverse effect on marital quality. (Author/TE)
