Determinants of extramarital affairs group assignment
ECON2207 - Econometric Methods
41 Pages • Essays / Projects • Year: Pre-2021
Wiederman (1997) emphasises the fact that 22.7% of married men and 11.6% of women have had extramarital sex during their marriage. Thompson (1993) identifies three determinants of extramarital affairs, being; gender, race and age. It is believed that males, African Americans and newly married couples, are most prone to extramarital affairs. Furthermore, Prins et.al (1999), suggests that among men as well as women, normative disapproval, and to a lesser extent, relational dissatisfaction are related to the desire to become involved in extramarital sexual relationships. Only among women was inequity associated with extramarital sexual relationships. Becker et.al (1977) emphasises the fact that an unexpected increase in husband’s earning capacity reduces the divorce hazard, whereas an unexpected increase in wife’s earning capacity raises the divorce hazard. Edwards (1973) suggests that the probability of extramarital involvement is related to; socio-economic status, the intensity of religious devoutness, residential background, premarital experience, the duration of marriage, level of marital satisfaction, and the degree of alienation.
