alt Hacker NewsI’m assuming “initiated by” is an objective legal term for filing the divorce. which ironically is probably oppositely correlated to fault in divorces, i.e if the husband cheats, the wife files for divorce, and it was the husband’s ‘fault’ as they breaches the marital contract
The figure comes from interview data of post-divorce couples regarding motives for divorce (and a few other questions, i.e. regret etc). It's not literal paperwork filing data.
