title: Current marital trends and outcome of marriage counseling in Japan: 1982.
abstract: The purpose of this communication is to review recent marital trends in Japan, especially with reference to similar trends in the USA. Marital statistics can be difficult to interpret, especially since they are often calculated using differing methods. Where possible, an attempt has been made to recalculate Japanese statistics to make them more comparable with US ones.
