Intergenerational Social Mobility and Family Formation in the United States Ph.D. Dissertation, Department of Sociology, The University of Wisconsin - Madison, 2020 Cohort(s): NLSY97 Publisher: ProQuest Dissertations & Theses (PQDT) Keyword(s): Family Formation; Intergenerational Patterns/Transmission; Marital Status; Marriage; Mobility, Social; Mothers and Daughters; Socioeconomic Status (SES) Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. In this dissertation, I shift the focus of mainstream social stratification research away from economic and occupational outcomes to incorporate family formation patterns, both as an outcome related to social mobility and as a contributor to social mobility. Across three related papers, I investigate the relationships between social mobility and family formation by focusing on the marriage experiences of first-generation college students and the transmission of status and family structure between mothers and daughters. |
