  • Gender Differences in the Psychological Well-Being of Married Men and Women

    Open AccessTheodore D Fuller, J N Edwards et al.ARTICLESociological Quarterly2004Cited by: 1References: 48

    Using a wide variety of measures of psychological well-being obtained from a representative sample of married men and women in Bangkok, Thailand, we examine gender differences in psychological well-being. We find that, in Bangkok, as in the United States, married men generally enjoy a higher level of psychological well-being than do married women. We find no support for role strain theory, but we do find support for role enhancement theory. We fi…

    Theodore D Fuller, J N Edwards et al.ARTICLEJournal of Health and Social…1993Cited by: 6

    In Thailand, like the U.S., women's higher rates of illness and health service use imply that they are "sicker." But, as in the U.S., females live longer than males. Based on a large representative sample of Bangkokians, we find that married women report more sickness, are more likely to utilize health services and, according to self-reports, have poorer health. Western literature suggests five prominent explanations for gender differences in hea…

  • Household Crowding and Family Relations in Bangkok

    Theodore D Fuller, J N Edwards et al.ARTICLESocial Problems1993Cited by: 2References: 22

    Cities in developing countries are growing ever larger and more dense, fostering congested household environments. Using data from Bangkok, this paper examines the effect of household crowding on multiple measures of family relations, looking at the possible ''social costs.'' The data show that objective household crowding does increase marital instability and arguments, and parent-child tensions. Subjective household crowding affects not only th…

  • Household crowding and reproductive behavior

    J N Edwards, Theodore D Fuller et al.ARTICLEBiodemography and Social Biology1992References: 14

    Ethological studies suggest that animal populations that live in crowded conditions display a number of behaviors that tend to limit the size of the population, such as aberrant forms of sexual behavior, small litter sizes, a higher incidence of spontaneous abortion, ineffectual maternal care, and even cannibalism of their young. Studies of household crowding in North America cities have produced only modest and selective evidence that crowding h…
