The purpose of this paper is to investigate the relationship between all kinds of married state and health for the elderly. Based on the year of 1989, 1993, 1996, 1999, and 2003 Survey of Health and Living Status of the Elderly in Taiwan, we applied Cox proportional hazards model to our study. At first, we investigate if there is the different health between married, widow/widower, divorced, separated, and always single; the second, we compared two kinds of elder’s health— keep the unmarried state from 1989-2003 and from unmarried to get married during 1989-2003; the third, we still compared two kinds of elder’s health— keep the married from 1989-2003 and from married to unmarried during 1989-2003.
Because all kinds of married states, except widow/widower, have self-selection problem, we cannot judge this problem from the survey. So the finally estimation has endogeneity problem, we cannot avoid it. Findings show that the elderly translate married state from single to get married is healthier than always keep single ones, and the females’ health don’t change when their married state from married to single, but males’ become worse.
