A few things I just found on the web:

'Children of Divorced Parents Are More Likely to Themselves Divorce' ~ by Banister Nuri

'Nicholas H. Wolfinger is an adjunct associate professor of Sociology at the University of Utah. His new book ... describes how children of divorce are more likely to end their own marriages. .... Wolfinger describes how divorce is a phenomenon that tends to snowball over many generations, increasing the likelihood that future couples will split.'

'The current U.S. divorce rate:
'Divorce rates among Christian groups:

'Dr. Tom Ellis, chairman of the Southern Baptist Convention's Council on the Family said that for "...born-again Christian couples who marry...in the church after having received premarital counseling...and attend church regularly and pray daily together..." experience only 1 divorce out of nearly 39,000 marriages -- or 0.00256 percent.'

'A recent study by the Barna Research Group throws extreme doubt on these estimates.

'Divorce rates among conservative Christians were significantly higher than for other faith groups, and much higher than Atheists and Agnostics experience.

'George Barna, president and founder of Barna Research Group, commented:
"While it may be alarming to discover that born again Christians are more likely than others to experience a divorce, that pattern has been in place for quite some time ...".'

'Couples who live together before marriage more likely to get divorced '
'Sharing the same home can pressurise people into getting married for all the wrong reasons, according to scientists.

'In the UK more than three-quarters of couples live together before marriage ...

'About one-in-five of those who cohabited before getting engaged had since suggested divorce - compared with only 12 percent of those who only moved in together after getting engaged and 10 percent who did not cohabit prior to the wedding bells.'

Quote:
'Women who work full-time are three times more likely to get divorced than those who stay at home.'

'That's according to research to be published this week in the European Sociological Review which also reveals that the longer hours women work, the more likely they are to be divorced.'

'After a separation or divorce the chances of marrying or cohabiting again decrease. In particular, a previous marriage or children from a previous relationship, reduce the chances of a new relationship.'
