[The effect of changes in divorce laws on the divorce rate: an application of intervention analysis]
Abstract:
"This article examines the effects of three juridical changes [in 1838, 1883, and 1971] on the divorce rate in the Netherlands.... For this purpose intervention variables were added to a statistical time-series...model. If it is assumed that the effects of the 1883 and 1971 reforms have been permanent, the total effect of the juridical reforms has been considerable. However, even though the model based on the assumption of permanent effects provides the best fit of the data, changes occurring some years after the immediate effects suggest that it may be reasonable to assume that the effects were temporary only." An English-language version of the article is available from the author. (SUMMARY IN ENG)
