Cohabitation:

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cohabitation has been found to increase the risk of divorce, as people who cohabit tend to have lower levels of commitment and often view marriage as less important. This effect has been observed across different racial and ethnic groups. While cohabitation may have some benefits, such as testing a relationship before marriage or providing financial advantages, research suggests that it should not be viewed as a substitute for marriage in terms of stability and commitment.
