The Application of Age-Specific Rates to Divorce

England, J. Lynn; Kunz, Phillip R.

Journal of Marriage and the Family, 37, 1, 40-46, Feb 75

Age-Specific divorce rates and weighted divorce rates are evaluated in comparison with several traditional rates. The analysis reversals of the ranking of some states in comparison with rankings based on other divorce rates, and the age-specific rates for young married couples is lower than expected. (Author)
