• The Ambiguous Link between Marriage and Health: A Dynamic Reanalysis of Loss and Gain Effects (2017, background): “Much contemporary research has shifted its attention to sources of heterogeneity in the effects of marriage (Hawkins and Booth 2005; Kalmijn and Monden 2006; Williams and Dunne-Bryant 2006; Williams, Sassler, and Nicholson 2008).”
