Abstract
"This paper aims at providing a practical guidance for coping with social science event-history data that are left-truncated, especially when the length of exposure prior to observation is known.

Marital dissolution data from the Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID) are used as an example...." excerptKeywords: Americas; Developed Countries; Divorce; Marriage; Methodological Studies; North America; Northern America; Nuptiality; Separation; United States
