利用来自全国家庭和住户调查的纵向数据以及妻子和丈夫报告的数据（N = 4，574对夫妇），本研究探讨了财务状况，财务分歧和财务不平等的看法与离婚的可能性之间的关系。当模型中出现财务分歧时，财务状况与离婚无关。妻子和丈夫的财务分歧都是预测离婚的最强烈分歧类型。来自系统理论（冲突策略）和社会交换理论（婚姻满意度）的中介完全调解了经济分歧和离婚风险之间的关联。最后，财务分歧完全介导的财务不平等和离婚的看法之间的关联。这些发现表明，相对于其他常见的婚姻分歧，财务分歧是离婚的更强预测因素。他们进一步指出，财务分歧（例如，内容）与婚姻过程有关。
Using longitudinal data from the National Survey of Families and Households and both wife- and husband-reported data (N = 4,574 couples), this study examined how financial well-being, financial disagreements, and perceptions of financial inequity were associated with the likelihood of divorce. When financial disagreements were in the model, financial well-being was not associated with divorce. Both wives' and husbands' financial disagreements were the strongest disagreement types to predict divorce. Mediators derived from systems theory (conflict tactics) and social exchange theory (marital satisfaction) fully mediated the association between financial disagreement and the hazard of divorce. Finally, financial disagreements fully mediated the association between perceptions of financial inequity and divorce. These findings suggest that financial disagreements are stronger predictors of divorce relative to other common marital disagreements. They further suggest that financial disagreements (e.g., content) are associated with marital process.
