The Effect of Human Capital on the Economic Status of Women Following Marital Disruption Home Economics Research Journal 18,3 (March 1990): 202-210.

Women who fail to invest in human capital such as education and work experience risk future poverty in the event of marital disruption. This study used data from the NLS of Young Women cohort to determine the effect of human capital on the per capita household income of women immediately divorce or separation. Results indicated that higher levels of educational attainment and work experience increase post-disruption per capita income by significant amounts. However, fairly large increments of human capital are needed to offset the income-reducing effect of children under age six in the household. |

Alcohol and Illicit Substance Use in the Food Service Industry: Assessing Self-Selection and Job-Related Risk Factors Journal of Hospitality and Tourism Research 35,1 (February 1, 2011): 45-63 Cohort(s): NLSY97 Publisher: Sage Publications Keyword(s): Alcohol Use; Employment; Employment, Part-Time; Industrial Sector; Job Characteristics; Shift Workers; Substance Use Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. The present study examines alcohol and illicit substance use in the food service industry with a generalizable national sample. Specifically, using the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth, this research examines whether previous substance use predicts employment in food service and assesses the impact of job-related factors including cumulative experience, occupational differences, compensation, shifts worked, and holding multiple jobs on substance use. The results demonstrate that a modest self-selection effect does exist and that bartenders, employees who receive tipped compensation, and those who hold multiple jobs engage in greater substance use. These findings are discussed along with implications for practitioners and opportunities for future research attention.
