The results of a recent study indicate that on average men drink more when they are divorced and women drink more when married.
A group of professors from different universities analyzed data from the Wisconsin Longitudinal Study, the Marital Quality Over the Life Course Project and the Relationships and Health Habits Over the Life Course Study.
The research revealed:
- Married men drink less than single or divorced men;
- Married women drink more than single or divorced women;
- Single and divorced men drink more than women of the same marital status.
