AGE AT FIRST MARRIAGE ages of members of the large birth cohorts born dur ing the high fertility years extending from the late During the 16 years spanning 1960 to 1976, the 1940's through the early 1960's. Nevertheless, a estimated median age at which young men and closer inspection of the figures, particularly those women first marry increased by about one full year for the age groups in which mqst first marriages take (from 22.8 years to 23.8 years for men and from place, indicates a trend towards longer periods of 20.3 to 21.3 years for women). This and other singleness among young adults than in the past. The trends observed in related statistical indicators re percent single for men 20 to 24 years old rose from flect a general movement among young adults away 53 percent in 1960 to 62 percent in 1976 and from from early marriage. For example, the estimates of 28 percent to 43 percent during the same period for the quartile ages at first marriage (the ages by which 20- to 24-year-old women. Furthermore, since 1970 one-fourth and three-fourths of those who ever the percent single among 25- to 29-year-old men and marry do so) shown in table B indicate a movement women has increased, perhaps indicating that not 'In the direction of later age at first marriage.

However, in recent years this interval DIVORCE RATIO has broadened more for women than for men. This widening may be attributable, in part, to the increas Another major development in recent years re ing proportion of women who exercise options to garding marriage statistics has been a dramatic in advance their education and to gain employment crease in the incidence of divorce. The National prior to marriage. Center for Health Statistics has estimated that the divorce rate more than doubled in the last dozen years, from 2.3 per 1,000 population in 1963 to 4.8 Additional evidence of the changing behavior of in 1975.
