Content: However, the effects of changes in income on changes in satisfaction do not seem to be long-term. People adapt to higher as well as lower levels of income (for an overview see Furnham and Argyle 1998 ). Much attention has been paid to the significance of money in family formation and family life (see White and Rogers 2000 ). Economic assets play a considerable role in marriage decisions, not only among women, who have traditionally been assumed to consider their partner's bread-winning potential, but also among men. Men's earning and employment have consistently been found to increase the likelihood of marriage, and even women's increasing participation in the labor force does not seem to render male income less important. Furthermore, the income of both men and women, particularly the income differential between husbands and wives, affects the division of household labor between marital partners beyond the time restrictions due to their employment. There is more sharing of household tasks between spouses if wives contribute more to family income (Coltrane 2000 ). Economic resources also affect family relations. Conflict over financial affairs seems to be among the most important sources of discord in partnerships and family violence has often been linked to the lack of financial resources. As to divorce, findings demonstrate a positive correlation between men's earnings and marital stability (e.g., Hoffman and Duncan 1995 ).
