众所周知，父母在童年时期离婚或经历婚姻破裂的年轻人可能比父母保持婚姻关系的年轻人更早开始第一次伴侣关系并成为父母。在这篇论文中，我们使用了英国国家性态度和生活方式调查的数据，研究了第一次交媾的时间在离婚父母的孩子的这种人口行为的起源中起了多大的作用。其他因素，包括月经初潮的时间，对性活动的态度，父母的严格程度和宗教信仰，也进行了调查。总的来说，这些因素几乎没有解释力。分析表明，与那些由亲生父母共同抚养长大的人相比，来自破裂家庭的男性和女性更早的性行为是他们更早进入伴侣关系和为人父母的一个重要的近似决定因素。
It is well established that young people whose parents divorced or experienced marital breakdown during their childhood are likely to enter into first partnerships and into parenthood earlier than those whose parents remained married. In this paper, using data from the British National Sexual Attitudes and Lifestyles Survey, we examine how far the timing of first coitus plays a role in the genesis of this demographic behaviour for children of divorced parents. Other factors, including the timing of menarche, attitudes to sexual activity, degree of parental strictness and religiosity, were also examined. In general, these factors had little explanatory power. The analysis showed that earlier sexual activity for men and women from disrupted families is an important proximate determinant of their earlier entry into partnership and parenthood, compared with those brought up with both natural parents.
