摘要: Relationship dissolution affects the wellbeing of individuals, particularly children.  We jointly model the duration of relationships and the time to birth of children for 10,827 partnered women over twenty years in Australia, focusing on personality, non-cognitive skills and the risk of problem gambling. We account for differences in partners' personalities, non-cognitive skills, education, age and linguistic background.  We apply Simulated Maximum Likelihood to a bi-variate duration incorporating non-parametric duration dependence, time-varying covariates, unobserved heterogeneity and correlation between outcomes.  Challenging personality traits, external locus of control, partner mismatch and problem gambling all contribute to shorter marriages.
