Unitdivorces per 1,000 peoplehigher is neither better nor worse
SourceOECDCC BY 4.0 (OECD terms and conditions)
What this measures. Divorces granted in the year per 1,000 people (counted at mid-year). From the same OECD Family Database table as the marriage rate, and for the same forty-odd OECD countries. It is a crude rate, not adjusted for how many people are married. So a country where few people marry can have few divorces without its marriages lasting any longer. No "better" direction is set.

Links that hold up
r is how closely two measures rise and fall together across countries, from −1 (opposite) to +1 (in step), where 0 means no link. These pairs are ranked by the link after adjusting for national income, which means comparing countries with the same GDP per person. Each pair passed three checks. The link held after that adjustment. It was unlikely to be chance (q of 0.05 or less), even allowing for countries in the same region being alike and for the many pairs tested. And the two are not just two measures of the same thing. Very small q values are written in short form: 8.0e-5 means 0.000080.
| Measure | Before adjusting | After adjusting | q | Countries | Tracks income? |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Divorce rate and HIV prevalenceWhere Divorce rate is higher, HIV prevalence tends to be higher: a weak link that holds when only countries with similar income are compared. HIV prevalence by country | +0.38 | +0.38 | 0.029 | 32 | moderate |

| Divorce rate and Single-parent householdsWhere Divorce rate is higher, Single-parent households tends to be higher: a weak link that holds when only countries with similar income are compared. Single-parent households by country | +0.20 | +0.16 | 0.049 | 36 | independent |

Links that don’t count as findings
These go together strongly, but they are built from the same numbers or measure the same thing. So they are bound to match, or their match shows that the measures agree, not something about the world.

| Divorce rate and Divorce rate (UN)Two ways of measuring the same thing, so their agreement tells you about measurement, not about the world. Divorce rate (UN) by country | +0.96 | +0.96 | 0.000 | 41 | independent |
How much the other measures account for
The 71 most widely reported measures boil down to a few broad patterns. This table shows how much of the differences between countries on this measure those patterns account for, adding one pattern at a time. The patterns are rebuilt without this measure, and without anything built from the same numbers or measuring the same thing. So it never predicts itself under another name. The figures use the 43 countries reporting all of them, and 71 candidate measures.
This shows how much it moves with the others. It does not explain anything. Measures that move together end up on the same pattern whether or not anything connects them. And the countries here are the best-documented ones. A high figure means this measure is largely predictable from the others, not that they produce it.
| Patterns used | Share of this measure accounted for | Added by this pattern |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 2% | — |
| 2 | 2% | +1% |
| 3 | 8% | +5% |
| 4 | 15% | +7% |
| 5 | 16% | +1% |
| 6 | 17% | +1% |
Every other pair
Everything else this measure was tested against, apart from the links that hold up and the pairs built from the same numbers. Sorted by the link after adjusting. Search by name; every column sorts. A small adjusted figure is a result too. It says the two do not move together once income is set aside.
