Remarriage Propensity Rate Calculator

Remarriage events per 1,000 matched eligible person-years, not individual propensity prediction. Actual aligned same-period numerator/denominator strata, pooled by exposure not unweighted mean. Nonnegative counts/exposures and positive total denominator; overlapping strata must be independently resolved. No cohort representativeness, causation or eligibility inferred.

Description

A remarriage event rate normalizes events by eligible post-dissolution person-time.

A remarriage event rate normalizes events by eligible post-dissolution person-time.^[1]

That observed rate differs from an individual's probability of marrying within a future interval.

When to use Remarriage Propensity Rate Calculator

Use this tool to obtain observedPooledRate, observedNumeratorTotal, observedDenominatorTotal from the supplied records using the stated calculation. Establish the population, period, variable definitions, sample coverage and independently applicable instrument or calibration.

How to use Remarriage Propensity Rate Calculator and understand its results

Establish the population, period, variable definitions, sample coverage and independently applicable instrument or calibration.
Enter observedRemarriageEvents, matchedEligiblePostDissolutionPersonYears, using the field meanings and rules below, then run the tool.
Read result.observedPooledRate, result.observedNumeratorTotal, result.observedDenominatorTotal. Use the units and sign conventions below, and review any unknown records separately.
Correct any reported input issue and run again. Before using a successful result, check the stated units, signs, reference scope and observation coverage.

Input field	Meaning	Value type	Requirement
observedRemarriageEvents	Observed remarriage events	list of number	Required
matchedEligiblePostDissolutionPersonYears	Matched eligible post dissolution person years	list of number	Required

Supply nonempty aligned finite nonnegative numerator and denominator lists for the same strata. Their denominator total must be positive. Pool the totals before dividing and scale by 1000. Return both totals alongside the pooled rate. The implementation does not require integer counts or enforce numerator≤denominator; it neither averages stratum rates equally nor converts units. The supplied definitions determine whether the result is a percentage, a per-population rate or another ratio.

pooledRate=1000×Σnumerators/Σdenominators; numeratorTotal=Σnumerators; denominatorTotal=Σdenominators

Use the matching field units and the exact boundary, ordering and reference rules above.

Output field	Meaning	Value type
result	Calculated observation or qualified reference	object
result.observedPooledRate	Scaled pooled numerator/denominator rate; its units and scaling follow the declared formula.	number
result.observedNumeratorTotal	Sum of the supplied nonnegative numerator records.	number
result.observedDenominatorTotal	Sum of the matched nonnegative denominator records; required to be positive.	number

Limitations and assumptions

Population definitions, survey design, calibration and observation coverage are independently established. A result describes the supplied record or conditional model without demonstrating causation, validating an instrument or supplying representative population evidence.

Missing required fields, unknown fields, wrong types and violated rules return input issues. Numeric values and outputs must be finite. Lists and matrices must be dense, without missing cells. Numeric lists allow at most 10000 entries, subject to the narrower lengths and code rules above. Extremely large composite outputs are rejected.
