Description
In Maryland, about one quarter of child support orders deviate from the guidelines-recommended amount. Ideally, these deviations encourage obligors to make regular payments, but there has been no prior research on this topic. In this brief, we found that deviations appear to have a small but positive influence on payment compliance.
