A study examined the effects of parental divorce on college students, comparing college students in five areas of social development according to parental marital status: evaluation of parent/child relationships; relationship commitment and satisfaction; dating frequency and satisfaction; attitudes toward marriage; and sexual activity and satisfaction. Subjects, 191 students at a small, private liberal arts university, completed a three-page questionnaire. Results indicated three differences between students from intact and divorced families: students from divorced families had a less favorable perception of their relationship with their father, were more cautious about frequent dating, and rated premarital cohabitation as more acceptable.
