Abstract
In recognition of the accelerating rate of family disruption and divorce, the authors of this article compared the physical health rating of divorced families with those of intact families. The findings were extracted from a large national study focusing on the impact of divorce on children. It used a random sample of first, third, and fifth grade students. Data were gathered from a vast pool of instruments measuring both school and home variables. Analyses of variance and correlational analyses indicated that marital status was related to health favoring intact family members.
