Recent Changes in Marital Instability among Mexican Americans: Convergence with Black and Anglo Trends?

Frisbie, W. Parker; And Others

Social Forces, v58 n4 p1205-20 Jun 1980

Cohort analysis was used to compare changes in the prevalence of marital instability among Mexican American women with those observed among Black and Anglo women in the southwestern United States. Recent (1960-70) trends were found to be toward increased divergence in levels of marital instability among these three groups. (Author/GC)
