Abstract: This study aims to explore the association between a sedentary lifestyle and marital dissolution. The research sample was drawn from 7,940 individuals aged 20 and above who participated in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2013 to 2018. In this study, a logistic regression model was employed to estimate the odds ratio (OR) of the relationship between sedentary behavior and marital dissolution. After adjusting for all covariates, sedentary behavior of 600 minutes or more was significantly associated with marital dissolution, with an odds ratio (OR) of 1.191 (95% CI: 1.026-1.381, P<0.05); sedentary behavior in men was not statistically significant (P>0.05); after adjusting for all covariates, sedentary behavior of 600 minutes or more in women was significantly associated with marital dissolution, OR=1.300 (95% CI: 1.067-1.583, P<0.01). The research findings suggest that prolonged sedentary behavior may be a potential risk factor for marital dissolution.
