Wealth in Middle and Later Life: Examining the Life Course Timing of Women's Health Limitations The Gerontologist 59,5 (October 2019): 902-911. Also: https://academic.oup.com/gerontologist/article/59/5/902/5032612 Cohort(s): Mature Women Publisher: Gerontological Society of America Keyword(s): Disability; Health, Chronic Conditions; Health/Health Status/SF-12 Scale; Life Course; Modeling, Growth Curve/Latent Trajectory Analysis; Wealth Research Design and Methods: Using 36 years of data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Mature Women, piecewise growth curve and linear regression models were used to estimate the effects of life course timing and duration of health limitations on household wealth. Results: The findings reveal that women who experienced health limitations accumulated substantially less wealth over time, especially if the health limitations were manifest during childhood or early adulthood. |

Intergenerational Transmission of Volunteering: Evidence from the National Longitudinal Survey Presented: New Orleans, LA, Southern Sociological Society Annual Meeting, April 2000 Cohort(s): Mature Women, Young Women Publisher: Southern Sociological Society Keyword(s): Human Capital; Modeling; Mothers and Daughters; Pairs (also see Siblings); Parent-Child Relationship/Closeness; Role Models; Volunteer Work Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. The popular resource model, which accounts for much of the variance in volunteering by citing differences in human & social capital, is argued to be deficient insofar as it ignores the possibility that volunteering is passed from one generation to another. Data from the National Longitudinal Survey make possible an examination of the extent to which mothers transmit volunteer behavior to their daughters, net of any resources they might also bestow. From the Young & the Mature Women\'s Module, a \"matching-pairs\" data set is created in which 1,816 mothers & daughters from the same household were interviewed (the former, 5 times over 10 years & the latter, 4 times over 18 years). Results indicate that a powerful reason why daughters volunteer, net of their own resources, is that they have mothers who acted as role models in this regard. The reasons daughters give for volunteering, however, do not correspond closely to the reasons their mothers give. Various models examining factors that might moderate the tendency for daughters to emulate the philanthropy of their mothers are estimated. |
