Answer to Question 1

(b)

Answer to Question 2

Women who marry before they are 20 years of age are most likely to divorce; men who are at least five years older or five years younger than their spouse are also more likely to divorce (Heaton, Albrecht, & Martin, 1985). For teenagers in particular, it appears that emotional immaturity, lack of marital preparation, poor marital role performance, and lack of life coping skills contribute to marital breakup.
