Labor Force Participation Decision of Females: A Comparison between Younger and Older Cohorts Mimeo, Department of Economics, California State University, Fullerton, 1992 Cohort(s): Mature Women, Young Women Publisher: Department of Economics, California State University, Fullerton Keyword(s): Children; Family Resources; Marital Status; Sex Roles Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. This study examines the determinants of labor force participation (LFP) of women by focusing on the changing role of marital status and attitudes about women working. The results display an important structural shift in the LFP of women which occurred between 1967 and 1973, an indication that older women enter the labor force more rapidly at lower wages than younger women. In addition, the results indicate that older generation women are more influenced by marital status and attitudes; however, both generations share a responsiveness to the presence of young children. |
