“…Some studies suggest that differences in people's belief systems were likely to loosen social coherence and lead to a further increase in the divorce rate (Glenn & Supancic, 1984;Glenn & Shelton, 1985;Breault & Kposowa, 1987). In China, family structure, social coherence, ethnic culture, and implementation of marital law all influenced divorce rates in various locales in China.…”

“…For example, the large number of studies on the effects of religiosity on the quality and stability of marital unions largely ignores religious affiliation (e.g., Glenn and Supancic 1984;Booth et al 1995;Call and Heaton 1997). In all of this research, intra-and inter-faith couples are lumped together, without considering that while a high level of religiosity on the part of both partners may be a positive factor for homogamous marriages, it is most likely a negative factor among heterogamous marriages.…”

ABSTRACT Religion as a Determinant of Economic and Demographic Behavior in the United States *This paper critically reviews and synthesizes research on the role of religion on various aspects of the economic and demographic behavior of individuals and families in the United States, including the choice of marital partner, union formation and dissolution, fertility, female time allocation, education, wages, and wealth. Using a theoretical framework based on Gary Becker's contributions to the economics of the family, religious affiliation is seen to affect these outcomes because it has an impact on the costs and benefits of many interrelated decisions that people make over the life cycle. In addition, for behaviors that pertain to married couple households, affiliation matters because it is a complementary trait within the context of marriage. Religiosity, another dimension of religion, also affects economic and demographic outcomes, partly because it accentuates differences by religious affiliation, partly because of the generally beneficial effects that religious involvement has on health and well-being. Religion as a Determinant of Economic and Demographic Behavior in the United StatesA large body of literature documents that religion has important effects on various aspects of the economic and demographic behavior of individuals and families in the United States, including the choice of marital partne...

“…Yapılan bazı araştırmalar, Katolik mezhebine mensup olan evli çiftlerin diğerlerine kıyasla daha az boşandıklarını, ibadet sıklığı yüksek olan bireylerin diğerlerine göre daha az boşandıklarını, buna karşılık dini bağlılık düzeyleri zayıf olan evli çiftlerin daha fazla boşanma riski altında olduklarını belirtmişlerdir (Glenn & Supancic, 1984). Yapılan araştırmalarda dinin boşanmayı engelleyen en önemli faktörlerden biri olduğu sonucu çıkmıştır.…”
