Solution

The false statement is: "Marital happiness is always a strong predictor of how likely you are to divorce, no matter how long you've been married." While marital happiness can influence the likelihood of divorce, it is not always a strong predictor throughout the entire duration of a marriage. Other factors such as financial stress, infidelity, or personal changes can also contribute to divorce, regardless of marital happiness.
