The Impact of Health on Earnings and Labor Market Activity Monthly Labor Review 95,10 (October 1972): 46-49 Cohort(s): Older Men Publisher: U.S. Department of Labor Keyword(s): Earnings; Health/Health Status/SF-12 Scale; Unemployment Results from a comparison of the earnings and the labor market activity of healthy and disabled men show that poor health negatively affects annual earnings through both total hours worked and hourly rates of pay. The effect on total hours worked is a consequence of differences between healthy and unhealthy men in number of weeks worked during the year. Time spent out of the labor force is more important than unemployment to explain the differences in weeks worked annually. |

The Impact of Health upon Earnings and Labor Market Activity of Middle-Aged Men Report, Columbus OH: Center for Human Resource Research, The Ohio State University, 1972. Also: http://books.google.com/books/about/The_impact_of_health_upon_earnings_and_l.html?id=pqNCYgEACAAJ Cohort(s): Older Men Publisher: Center for Human Resource Research Keyword(s): Earnings; Educational Attainment; Employment; Health/Health Status/SF-12 Scale The examination of the relationship between health and labor market success for middle-aged men indicates that poor health negatively affects annual earnings through both total hours worked and hourly rates of pay. The effect upon total hours worked is primarily a consequence of difference between healthy and unhealthy men in number of weeks worked annually, although differences in number of weekly hours also explain some of the difference. Time spent out of the labor force is somewhat more important than unemployment in explaining differences in the number of weeks worked annually although the difference between the unemployment experience of disabled and nondisabled men is not inconsequential. |

Correlates of Atypical Occupational Assignment Report, Columbus OH: Center for Human Resource Research, The Ohio State University, 1972 Cohort(s): Young Women Publisher: Center for Human Resource Research Keyword(s): Attitudes; Occupational Choice; Occupations, Female Controlling for race and education, the following variables were examined for their association with atypical assignment: marital status, current labor force status, hours usually worked on current or last job, residence at age 14, mother's education, whether or not mother worked when respondent was 14, "cultural exposure," attitude toward mothers working, plans for age 35, and motivation to work. Some evidence--however limited--of the effects of both formative influences and attitudes was found, thus the proposition that atypicality of assignment is entirely a random process, arising out of chance and discontinuous career patterns, was rejected. The effects of the variables appeared selectively across race and education groups. Atypical assignment was found not to be so severely constrained by either background or attitudinal set that entry to atypical occupations should be seriously restricted by those factors. |

Correlates of Atypicality of Occupational Assignment Among Young Women Presented: Toronto, Canada, Population Association of America Meetings, 1972 Cohort(s): Young Women Publisher: Population Association of America Keyword(s): Earnings; Educational Attainment; Employment; Occupations, Male; Socioeconomic Status (SES) Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. This study examines the correlates of atypical occupational assignment. For both whites and blacks, women in atypical occupations are less educated and are from lower socioeconomic backgrounds as compared to those in typical occupations. Also, women in the atypical occupations are more likely to hold full-time jobs, to report stronger work attachment and to be extrinsically motivated in their labor market behavior. In addition, atypical workers usually attain higher rates of pay compared to atypicals. |

Knowledge of the World of Work In: Years for Decision, Volume 2, Manpower Research Monograph 24. Washington DC: U.S. GPO, 1974 Cohort(s): Young Women Publisher: U.S. Government Printing Office Keyword(s): Occupational Status; Tests and Testing; Unemployment; Wages; Work Knowledge; World of Work Test This article analyzes young women's 'knowledge of the world of work' in 1968 and 1969. Respondents were given a ten-question test to determine their familiarity with different occupations. The results were then compared with possible determinants, such as age, color, education, and other outside influences. Of these, color and education, as well as labor force experience, seem to have the greatest effect on the test scores. Some consequences of knowing the world of work appear to be higher pay, a lower rate of unemployment, and a white-collar job. |

Years for Decision, Volume 2: A Longitudinal Study of the Educational and Labor Market Experiences of Young Women Manpower Research Monograph 24, Volume 2. Washington DC: US GPO, 1974 Cohort(s): Young Women Publisher: U.S. Department of Labor Keyword(s): Behavior; Dropouts; Earnings; Educational Aspirations/Expectations; Educational Attainment; Marital Status; Migration; Mobility, Job; Occupations, Female Data from both the first and second surveys of the NLS of Young Women are used to examine school enrollment and educational aspirations and their correlates. Findings show that as young women get older, they become more realistic in their aspirations. Also explored are changes in job status among out-of-school youth, such as change in rate of pay and interfirm and geographic movement. 'Knowledge of the world of work' appears to have a positive effect on rate of pay and unemployment. Some of young women's behavior patterns are compared with those of the young men, and differences are generally explained by the eighteen-month difference in first interview dates (Young Men-Oct. 1966; Young Women-Feb. 1968). |

Employment Patterns In: Years for Decision, Volume 1, Manpower Research Monograph 24. Washington DC: U.S. GPO, 1971 Cohort(s): Young Women Publisher: U.S. Government Printing Office Keyword(s): Child Care; Educational Attainment; Marriage; Occupational Attainment; Wages This article examines the types of employment of young women and their relationship to race, marital and family status, education, and training, as well as labor market characteristics. Rate-of-pay is next examined, and is shown to correlate positively with educational attainment. Type of occupation appears to be related to rate of pay as well, although differently for whites than for blacks. Child care is also discussed. |
