| Abstract: | Literature on the effect of divorce has suggested that the daily routine of the divorced individual would change considerably. The present study was designed to investigate what aspects of daily routine were affected when a person separated from his or her spouse. Divorced persons were found to be more active with their personal affairs and less involved with community responsibilities. Leisure activities increased for the divorced. Productivity at work was not affected, although difficulties in concentration were reported. |
