This paper explores the uses of a particular set of panel data, the NLS of Mature and Young Women, to study women's issues. Women's labor force behaviors, role conceptions, and family statuses were measured at several time points. Various ways of examining the relationships among these variables are presented. The author concludes that the data set provides valuable information about changes in women's situation in society over time and causes of those changes.
