Edwards, John N.; Booth, Alan – Journal of Marriage and the Family, 1976
An assessment of the "demography" of two forms of sexual behavior, marital intercourse and extramarital involvement, is presented. Findings suggest the sexual behavior of males and females is largely contextual. The more severe the marital strain, the lower the frequency of marital coitus and the more likely is extramarital involvement. (Author)
