The Impact of Legislation on Divorce: A Hazard Function Approach
journal contribution
posted on 2023-05-16, 09:48 authored by Kidd, MPThe paper examines the impact of the introduction of no-fault divorce legislation in Australia. The approach used is rather novel, a hazard model of the divorce rate is estimated with the role of legislation captured via a time-varying covariate. The paper concludes that contrary to US empirical evidence, no-fault divorce legislation appears to have had a positive impact upon the divorce rate in Australia. © 1995, Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
