Does anybody know of a study which looks at divorce rates for people with academic jobs?
I looked around briefly and only found an old article in which the author notes that she couldn't find any statistics on the subject.

I was discussing this with some friends and they hypothesized that the divorce rate for physicists with university positions in the US (postdocs and professors) was higher than the national average in the US - however they also hypothesized the inverse was true in Canada and the Netherlands.
