I wouldn't say this study is far-fetched at all.
I've known people who swear by the whole "no sex before marriage" bit and wouldn't hesitate to kick any "dissenting" partners to the curb. By the time they reach their mid-20s, they realize they're probably not getting hitched anytime soon, so they abandon that practice.
For the uninitiated, the whole "no sex before marriage" thing stemmed from the days where women were the equivalent of cattle and they were most valuable "untouched". Fathers would use their daughters as bargaining chips for gold and/or land. As a result, fathers guarded their daughters' purity with their lives. The Church saying "no sex before marriage" made the fathers' job easier in that respect.
