A technique was devised to estimate age specific remarriage probabilities for newly widowed persons utilizing North Carolina marriage certificates plus information from the 1970 U. S. Census. Remarriage probabilities are very high for persons widowed before age 35. Remarriage probabilities decrease faster for widows than widowers. Less than one-fourth of men widowed after age 65 ever remarry. Less than 5% of women widowed after age 55 ever remarry. Age specific intervals to remarriage were also calculated. Men remarry more quickly than women. The median interval to remarriage was 1.7 years for men and 3.5 years for women. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER] |
