Abstract:

In the paper the basic regional trends of marital separation which is, especially for Catholics, an alternative institution to divorce in Poland were presented. After a rapid increase at the beginning of the 21st century, the number of ordered separations started to decrease and now the relation of separations to divorces is smaller than 5%. Regionally, it is observed that the differentiation of the intensity of separations among various voivodships is decreasing, yet in more urbanized voivodships, which have a lower religiousness rate and a higher divorce rate, separations are more common.

Abstract:

Informal marital separation often quickly leads to divorce, but can become long-lasting, especially among disadvantaged populations. In this study, we focus on the timing of divorce after separating and examine how unemployment before or during separation affects this pivotal moment in the divorce process. Using data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth, 1979 Cohort ( N = 2,219), we track unemployment before and during separation and show that men’s unemployment during separation, rather than women’s, reduces the likelihood of divorce, independent of preseparation unemployment and ot

Abstract:

National statistics in the United States and Canada indicate that following marital separation the majority of parents settle for sole custody with the mother as custodian. Also, in the approximately 15% of separations in which custody is disputed, a majority of mothers are also awarded sole custody. A review of different views of the reasons for protracted custody disputes shows few authors systematically using data to support their views. A systematic comparison of custodial and noncustodial parents of both sexes showed no differences in their psychiatric histories, marital status and allege

Abstract:

This research examines the diversification and changes in the Canadian family form over the past 25 years. While the husband-wife family has declined over this time period, it still remains the dominant family form. Statistics Canada census statistics allows for the examination of new family forms since 1981, as the common-law partnership and the now married have been distinguished within the husband-wife family category. With the introduction of the 1968 and 1985 Divorce Acts, separation became a major ground for divorce in Canada. Marital breakdown should be measured by the incidence of both

Abstract:

Findings reported by many researchers indicate that the association between marital separation and intimate partner femicide has achieved the status of a sociological empirical generalization. The primary objective of this article is to contribute toward the cumulative development of a conflict theoretic explanation of separation- associated femicide by creating and testing a deductive conflict resolution theory that explains the empirical generalization. The causal mechanism identified in the theory is the intensity of conflict that increases with participation in adversarial and separation a

This article identifies predivorce individual and family characteristics that explain a portion of the effect of parental separation on the long-term well-being of children. Using longitudinal data from the National Survey of Children (NSC), the authors discuss how much of the relationship between a separation and measures of adult well-being (including educational and economic attainment, patterns of family formation, delinquency, and psychological well-being) is due to selectivity of parents into more fragile marriages and to family conflict that often precedes the physical departure of a pa

This study offers prospective data on the psychological well-being of men and women before and after a marital separation, in comparison with a control group who remained married during the same period.

Primary variables were current psychological well-being, self-esteem, mastery, substance use, and family income. Findings were quite different for men and women. Prior to separation, men in the disrupted group had lower psychological well-being scores than the continuously married group had

Recollections of parental care and overprotection measured by the PBI correlated significantly with Locke- Wallace measures of marital quality primarily in females.

The results are consistent with an interactive model where the quality of childhood experience determines t

The fact that the contemporary society is witnessing much disturbing increase in marital instability characterized with violence to physical and mental separation is no longer in doubt.  Marriage as a divine institution was founded by God on the purpose and principle of fellowship, companionship, procreation and education and training of children for societal progress and well being. Marriage has legal, traditional, cultural and religious affinity and as such is socially viewed as being sacred.  However,  some intellectuals and Christian theologians in their debate  have vi

We study how relationship stability of couples is affected by an increase in fathers’ involvement in staying home from work with young children. We make use of a parental leave reform in Sweden that earmarked one month of paid leave to each parent in a regression discontinuity difference-in-differences (RD-DD) framework. Couples who were affected by the reform increased the take-up of fathers’ leave but also increased their probability of separation compared to unaffected couples. We argue that the separation effect can be explained by the degree of restrictiveness of the policy in combination

AbstractThis study examines the association between educational attainment and separation risks in marital or non-marital first partnerships to query the extent to which educational expansion has affected trends in partnership stability. Because the educational gradient in separation changed from being positive for women (and, to a lesser extent, for men) to being statistically non-significant at the same time as educational expansion took place, the latter can only serve as a minor explanation of the exceptional rise in breakup rates in Switzerland.

Victims of domestic violence perceive different perspectives on the abuses they experience in their marital relationships. It is also seen that despite reporting a case, a victim may want to go back to the abuser or may suffer from post-separation abuses. This paper simply tries to explore the attitude of victims after reporting the crime towards domestic violence. We address two issues to analyze the post-separation attitude of the victims. First, to trace out the factors that motivates a domestic violence victim to report the crime. Secondly, even after reporting, why do they want to go back

This contribution explores marital violence in the Cape during the last decade of the nineteenth century. It is based on a comprehensive review of 587 matrimonial cases heard in the Cape Supreme Court over a ten-year period from January 1891 to December 1900. The study shows that marital violence had occurred in almost one quarter of the matrimonial suits finalised during that decade. The contribution explores the judicial response to violence within marriage. The optimal protection available to an abused wife was a judicial separation order.
