Resumen
RUIZ-VALLEJO, Fernando. Union Dissolution in Colombia and their Determinants. A Biographical Approach Based on the 2015 Demographics and Health Survey. CS [online]. 2021, n.33, pp.103-139. Epub 15-Feb-2021. ISSN 2011-0324. https://doi.org/10.18046/recs.i33.4058.
This study estimates the intensity and timing of the first union dissolution in Colombia and its regions, based on the application of survival analysis techniques with information from the 2015 Demographics and Health Survey (n = 24,823). The results demonstrate that after 20 years, 48% of unions were dissolved. The highest risk is associated with younger cohorts, common law marriage, early age at union, and age gaps where the woman is similar in age or older than her partner. Similarly, a higher level of education, as well as living in urban areas or certain regions, increases the risk of union dissolution. On the contrary, having preschool children was identified as a characteristic reducing this risk.
