En junio de 1980 el CIS realizó un Estudio sobre la pareja humana (N.º 1234) en el que se preguntaban varias cuestiones sobre el matrimonio. Casi la mitad de la población encuestada (46,7%) consideraba que cuando dos personas se casaban y decidían no tener hijos “no era un verdadero matrimonio”; una cifra parecida a la que indicaba que sí que constituían un matrimonio las parejas que decidían no tener hijos (45%). En esta encuesta, de 1980, al preguntar por el divorcio un 72,3% de los españoles aseguraron que, si se legalizase el divorcio, el número de separaciones sería “muy alto o alto” en los siguientes años.
