... and spouse characteristics. Bayesian information criterion (BIC), Akaike’s information criterion (AIC), and deviance measures are used to select the model best balancing data fit and parsimony (Raftery 1986 , 1995 ). BIC alone is insufficient because it may overvalue parsimony or simpler models (Weakliem...
