The Tempo of Remarriage among Young American Women.

Mott, Frank L.; Moore, Sylvia F.

Journal of Marriage and the Family, v45 n2 p427-35 May 1983

Examined the socioeconomic determinants of the timing of remarriage for young women (N=238). While socioeconomic and demographic variables are only moderately useful predictors of remarriage, not taking into account background factors can lead to significant misstatements of the importance of various factors for interpreting the likelihood of remarriage.
