This study analyses the relationship between short- and long-term relationships between divorce rates and economic recession in Turkey. The asymmetric and time-varying asymmetric causality tests are used to analyse the short-term relationship, the Maki cointegration test is used to analyse the long-term relationship. The dependent variable of the model is the divorce rate. Labour force participation rate of women, unemployment rate, GDP per capita, legal regulations, and economic crises are independent variables. According to the estimation results, unemployment, national income, legal regulations, and economic crises positively affect divorce rates. The time-varying asymmetric causality test results also indicate a temporary causality relationship between positive income and unemployment shocks.
