Most Canada Geese (Branta canadensis) form lifelong pair bonds (same-mate geese), but some pairs break apart and the geese mate with new partners while their former mates are still alive (divorcees). Over 25 years, we assessed lifelong reproduction of 160 collared Canada Geese that nested for multiple years in New Haven County, Connecticut. We examined whether same-mate geese and divorcee geese differed from each other prior to or after the divorce. Fifteen percent of females and 18% of males divorced during their lifetimes. Divorces were more frequent in pairs that produced fewer hatchlings during their prior nesting year. Most divorcees that nested again did so on their former nesting territories. Replacement partners of divorcees averaged younger and had fewer years of nesting experience than the divorcees’ prior mate. Usually after a divorce, one divorcee of each former pair nested immediately while the other skipped one or more years before nesting again. Under such circumstances, the partner able to nest immediately can increase its direct fitness by finding a new partner and nesting rather than foregoing the opportunity to nest that year. During their first nesting year after the divorce, the reproductive success of divorcees and same-mate geese were similar.

The association between marital status and coronary artery disease (CAD) is supported by numerous epidemiological studies. While divorce may have an adverse effect on cardiac outcomes, the relationship between divorce and severe CAD is unclear. We conducted a multicenter, observational study of consecutive patients undergoing coronary angiography during the period between April 1, 2013, and March 30, 2014. Of 1,068 patients, 124 (12%) were divorced. Divorce was more frequent among women (27%) compared to men (6%). Most divorced patients had been divorced only once (49%), but a subset had been divorced 2 (38%) or ≥3 (12%) times. After adjusting for baseline differences, there was no significant association between divorce and severe CAD in men. In women, there was a significant adjusted association between divorce and severe MVD (OR 2.31 [1.16, 4.59]) or LMD (OR 5.91 [2.19, 15.99]). The modification of the association between divorce and severe CAD by gender was statistically significant for severe LMD (Pinteraction 0.0008) and marginally significant for CAD (Pinteraction 0.05). Among women, there was a significant adjusted association between number of divorces and severe CAD (OR 2.4 [95% CI 1.2, 4.5]), MVD (OR 2.0 [95% CI 1.4, 3.0]), and LMD (OR 3.4 [95% CI 1.9, 5.9]). In conclusion, divorce, particularly multiple divorces, is associated with severe CAD, MVD, and LMD in women but not in men.

Divorce in a family bond is common. However, not a few of these divorces hurt children. This cased makes children a victim of divorce from their parents. For example, children are often angry, not confident, often feel lonely, and so on. Of course, the psychology of children from divorced families will experience obstacles in the process of self-development. In Situbondo, the divorce rate reached 2055 cases of divorce filing in 2010; This is the highest divorce rate in the last five years. Therefore, the authors are interested in carrying out this study to determine the impact of divorce on children's psychology, especially children of farming families who divorce in Bungatan Village, Situbondo Regency. This study uses the snowball technique to determine the informants' children aged 6-17 years whose families are divorced. This study indicates that the psychology of children from divorced families has a significant negative impact, such as low self-esteem towards their environment, temperament (irritability), and prolonged disappointment with their parents. Keywords: Psychology, Children, Divorce.

Abstract “Gray divorce,” or divorce which occurs in later life, is rapidly becoming more common in the United States. The purpose of this grounded theory study was to examine the lived experience of getting divorced in mid to later life. Data address the following research questions: 1) What are the divorcees’ expectations for the process of divorce and post-divorce life? 2) How do life phase factors and family relationships shape the divorce experience? Participants included 41 heterosexual men and women who legally divorced at the age of 55 or older and between 1-7 years from the time of the interview. Participants divorced from first and higher order marital unions. They included self-identified initiators, non-initiators, and co-initiators of the divorce. Results suggest that gray divorce is a complex experience marked by shifting feelings of ambivalence and certainty that are influenced by such factors as health and social networks, especially family.

The study aims to build a future educational role for the family to deal with the phenomenon of divorce that is by identifying the reasons leading to divorce from the point of view of divorced wives and husbands, the implications of divorce on both the wife and children, and the degree of difference in the reasons leading to divorce, according to gender, age, level of education and income for wives and divorced husbands in Jordan. The study population consisted of all divorce cases in the Kingdom in the last five years from 2012 to 2016, which number (24898) divorces. Based on this, the study recommends spreading awareness about the dangers of domestic violence and its repercussions leading to divorce, holding seminars on family issues and the rights of both husband and wife, and making them aware of the problems that both spouses may encounter.

How does religion influence the ways divorcées frame their divorce experience? Building on Mills’s “vocabularies of motive” concept, I theorize that Americans who are more religious or affiliated with a conservative Protestant tradition will be more likely to emphasize their former spouse’s role in the divorce while minimizing their own. Data are taken from a large, representative sample of divorced Americans in the 2014 Relationships in America survey. Analyses affirm that divorced Americans who attend worship services more frequently are more likely to say that their former spouse wanted the divorce more than they did. Looking at 17 specific reasons for divorce, those who feel religion is more important to them are consistently more likely to select reasons that put blame on their former spouse or circumstances, while frequent attendees are less likely to cite their own behaviors or intentions. Though less consistent, notable patterns also emerged for conservative Protestants. Given the stigma against divorce in many religious communities, I argue that divorcées in such communities likely feel internal pressure to account for their divorce in ways that deflect blame.

Although it has long been recognized that there is increased risk of divorce among the children of divorced parents, the extent to which genetic and environmental factors contribute to this familial resemblance has been a matter of speculation only. In order to resolve the separate influence of genetic and environmental factors on risk of divorce, divorce status of 1,516 same-sex twin pairs (722 monozygotic. MZ, and 794 dizygotic. DZ), their parents, and their spouses' parents was determined. Concordance for divorce was significantly higher in MZ than DZ twins; this was true overall, in both the male and female samples, for both younger and older twin pairs, and both when the twins' parents had been divorced and when they had not been divorced. The robustness and magnitude of the MZ-DZ difference in divorce concordance indicates a strong influence of genetic factors in the etiology of divorce. Moreover, family background of both spouses contributed independently to couples' divorce risk, suggesting that, in many cases, divorce may be largely the result of characteristics the two spouses bring to the union rather than to interaction effects. These results also suggest that the adjustment difficulties seen with some children of divorced parents may be due to an interaction between genetic and environmental factors rather than environmental influences alone, as is assumed in many theories of divorce's effects.

This paper proposes a re-reading of the history of divorces from the re-establishment of divorce in France in 1884 until the eve of the First World War, by distinguishing three major territories: the urban population, the rural population and the Department of the Seine. To refine the analysis, we will add data distinguishing Paris from its suburbs, within the Seine Department. The interest of the analysis, beyond measuring the level of divorces in these territories, is to answer the question of the homogenisation of divorce behaviour between 1884 and 1913. The available sources also provide details on divorces, which are generally unavailable outside the national level, such as which spouse obtained the divorce, the reason for the divorce, the length of the marriage, the age and age difference between the two spouses, and the number of children of divorced couples. In addition to measuring the levels of divorces in these territories, the aim will therefore be to find out whether the characteristics of divorces are the same in the urban and rural populations and in the Seine Department and, if not, to try to understand why they diverge.

Integrated Journal for Research in Arts and Humanities 2, no. 3 (May 1, 2022): 1–7. http://dx.doi.org/10.55544/ijrah.2.3.21.
The study was conducted to explore the lived experiences of divorcees, children of divorce, and the coping strategies they employed in dealing with their situations. This is a qualitative study that adopted descriptive phenomenological approach. A total of 20 respondents comprising 14 divorced women and men, 6 children of divorcee were used in the study and sampled through snowball and purposive sampling techniques. Data was gathered using semi-structured interview, and focused group discussion guides. The study revealed that the divorcees experienced physical, mental, social and financial problems. Children of the divorcee significantly experienced stress, emotional pains, sorrow, and worry about their condition. Again, the study revealed that divorcees and children of divorcee faced many consequences, they were not aware of availability of counselling services that could help them. It was recommended, among others, that divorcees who are mostly single parents must be given marital counselling and/or post-traumatic stress management. Again, the establishment of community-based counselling centres in the Asogli state for this purpose would be laudable. Finally, the District Assembly, traditional rulers in the Asogli state, Civil Society Organisations, and government agencies should offer care and support services to divorcees and their children including scholarships to children from divorced homes.

The article gives a general description and a detailed analysis of the divorce process of Volyn region population. The theoretical basis, demographic approaches to the study of divorce and divorce indicators in the region are analyzed. The importance of the divorces consequences and measures of demographic policy, which will be aimed at reducing them as a result of modernization of social and economic life in the current regime of reproduction: low birth rate and increasing life expectancy. Divorces peculiarities of Volyn region population are determined, the main of which are: sociological, psychological and demographic groups of risk factors for divorce. The main stages of family crises and their symptoms are described. The main negative consequences of divorce, which have an impact on the general demographic situation in the region are low birth rate (unrealized childbearing of divorced women); increase in the number of single-parent families in which the child is brought up by one parent; increasing the number of people who do not want to marry again after divorce; decrease of labor activity; deteriorating health, increased morbidity and death rate; increase suicides rate; increased risk of mental illness. It was found out the perspective psychological, legal forms and other assistance in marriage and family. The reasons for the low efficiency of the implementation of specific steps to overcome the processes of divorce in Volyn region are highlighted. Indicators for estimation of divorcing in the region have been calculated. Spatial-temporal data analysis of divorces for the period of 1995–2020 is carried out, regional features of their manifestation are singled out. The maps that reflect the spatial-temporal data differences of divorces in the regions were created. There were identified the main factors and preconditions for divorce in the region.

The mental health costs of divorce are staggering: no variable has been more consistently associated with the distribution of psychopathology in the population. Although the literature contains many descriptive guides for the treatment of the divorced, few empirical investigations of specific intervention strategies exist. This study sought to evaluate the effectiveness of one such treatment program, Divorce Recovery of Tucson. Three hypotheses were tested in the study. The first predicted that participants in Divorce Recovery would make greater progress in completing the social and psychological tasks of divorce adjustment than would a contrast group of divorced individuals. The second hypothesis posed a similar advantage for Divorce Recovery participants in the area of general psychological health, as measured by a symptom checklist, the SCL-90-R. The last predicted a moderately strong negative correlation between levels of symptomatology and adjustment to divorce, in the hope of aiding in the validation of a new instrument, the Fisher Divorce Adjustment Scale (FDAS). The study's treatment group consisted of 46 participants in Divorce Recovery, while the contrast group of 45 was drawn from separated or divorced volunteers residing primarily in Ventura County, California. Both groups completed the FDAS and SCL-90-R at ten week intervals, treatment group subjects doing so before and after attending a support group. The results provided partial support for the study's first hypothesis. In general, participation in Divorce Recovery facilitated the intrapersonal, rather than the social, tasks posed by divorce. More specifically, results obtained using the analysis of variance indicated a statistically significant advantage for the treatment group in the area of disentanglement from the love relationship, and clinically significant trends favoring the treatment group in the areas of self-esteem and resolution of anger. The second hypothesis found very mild support, with some weak trends present which favored the treatment group. The study's third hypothesis was confirmed, as moderately strong negative correlations were obtained between the FDAS and the SCL-90-R. Implications of the results for both theory and treatment are discussed, issues of internal validity and generalizability are explored, and suggestions for future studies are made.

This study aims to examine the life history of migrant women who have experienced divorce in a socio-cultural context. Five people participated in the study, and they have been living in self-reliance support facilities since their divorce. They were selected from interviews on the life history of 80 married migrant women, which were funded by the Korea Research Foundation from 2017 to 2019. The method of research is a life-historical case study. The results of the study are as follow; first, their marriage was to escape gender hierarchy and poverty in their home country. Therefore, it was confirmed that marriage migration took place within the transnational trend of feminization of migration. Second, self-reliance support facilities provide strong social support for divorced migrant women. As a result, it works as an important space that allows them to escape from voluntary self-exclusion and explore new subjectivity. Suggestions of the implications are as follow; the social support from self-reliance support facilities after divorce is a driving factor that is the subjective and active effort of single-parent migrant women. Discussions should continue that those who are free from the spouses of the people can live as practical and public citizens of Korean society.

"Divorce is considered a form of family disintegration that leads to the demolition of the family and family pillars after its construction through the marriage contract and then the termination of all social ties between husband and wife and often between their relatives. Divorce rates have risen to frightening levels that threaten our Islamic societies. Among the most important causes of divorce in our society are the following: The failure of one or both spouses in the process of adapting to the other through the different nature of the spouses and their personalities, the interference of the parents, the lack of harmony and compatibility between the spouses, the bad relationship and the large number of marital problems, the cultural openness, the absence of dialogue within the family. Several parties have sought to develop possible solutions to this dangerous phenomenon in our society, including: Establishment of advisory offices to reduce divorce by social and psychological specialists, and include the issue of divorce within the educational and educational curricula in a more concerned manner that shows the extent of the seriousness of divorce and its negative effects on the individual, family and society, and the development of an integrated policy that ensures the treatment of the causes and motives leading to divorce in the community, as well as holding conferences. Scientific and enlightening seminars and awareness workshops and the need for religious institutions and their media platforms to play a guiding and awareness role of the danger and effects of divorce on family construction and society, and to educate community members about the dangers of divorce and the importance of maintaining the husband’s bond and stability. As well as reviewing some marriage legislation and regulations, such as raising the age of marriage and reconsidering the issue of underage marriage, which is witnessing a rise in divorce rates. Among the proposed solutions is the demand to withdraw the power of divorce from the man's hands and place it in the hands of the judge, to prevent certain harm to women, or as a means to prevent the frequent occurrence of divorce. The last proposition created a problem that contradicts the stereotypical image of divorce in Islamic law, for which conditions and elements have been set, especially since Islamic Sharia is the main source of personal status laws in most Islamic countries. Therefore, the importance of this research is reflected in the study of this solution and its effectiveness as a means to prevent the spread of divorce, and not deviate from the pattern specified for it according to Sharia."

The divorce rate in the U.S. has declined in recent decades. In 1990, 19 people per 1,000 currently married individuals divorced compared to 15 per 1,000 in 2019. The overall trend in the divorce rate masks substantial variation by age. The divorce rate for younger people has been on the decline since the 1990s (Kennedy and Ruggles, 2014) whereas the divorce rate among those 50 and older has more than doubled since 1990 (Brown and Lin, 2012). This family profile updates FP-19-13 and charts the divorce rates by age groups in 1990 and 2019 using U.S Census data and the 2019 American Community Survey.

This paper studies the link between television and divorce in Brazil by exploiting variation in the timing of availability of the signal of Rede Globo -the network that had a virtual monopoly on telenovelas in the countryacross municipal areas. Using three rounds of Census data (1970, 1980 and 1991) and controlling for area fixed effects and for time-varying characteristics, the paper finds that the share of women who are separated or divorced increases significantly after the Globo signal becomes available. The effect is robust to controlling for potential determinants of Globos entry strategy and is stronger for relatively smaller areas, where the signal reaches a higher fraction of the population.
