  • Trends in Parental Values in a Period of U.S. Labor Market Change

    Open AccessR M Ryan, Ariel Kalil et al.ARTICLEJournal of Marriage and the Family2020References: 45

    Objective This article examines changes from 1986 to 2016 in the characteristics that parents in the United States most value in their children and differences in those values by parent income and education. Background As a result of interrelated labor market changes, income‐ and education‐based differences in parents' terminal values that have characterized U.S. families for generations are hypothesized to have converged by income and education …

  • Parental Income and Children's Life Course: Lessons from the Panel Study of Income Dynamics

    Open AccessGreg J Duncan, Ariel Kalil et al.ARTICLEThe Annals of the American…2018Cited by: 7References: 26

    This article reviews how the Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID) has contributed to our understanding of the links between childhood economic conditions-in particular, the household incomes with very young children-and the economic attainment and health of those children when they reach adulthood. From its beginning, the PSID has provided data useful for addressing intergenerational questions. In the mid-1990s, PSID data supported a series of s…

  • Backup Parents, Playmates, Friends: Grandparents' Time With Grandchildren

    Open AccessRachel E Dunifon, Rachel Dunifon et al.ARTICLEJournal of Marriage and the Family2018Cited by: 25References: 21

    Grandparents play varied roles in their grandchildren's lives. Prior work has focused mostly on historical trends in and implications of grandparent coresidence and has not considered more broadly how grandparents and grandchildren interact. Using time-use diary data for 6,762 person-years from the 1997 to 2007 waves of the Panel Study of Income Dynamics Child Development Survey, the authors examine patterns in the amount and activity composition…

  • Increasing Inequality in Parent Incomes and Children’s Schooling

    Open AccessGreg J Duncan, Ariel Kalil et al.ARTICLEDemography2017Cited by: 12References: 25

    Income inequality and the achievement test score gap between high- and low-income children increased dramatically in the United States beginning in the 1970s. This article investigates the demographic (family income, mother’s education, family size, two-parent family structure, and age of mother at birth) underpinnings of the growing income-based gap in schooling using data from the Panel Study of Income Dynamics. Across 31 cohorts, we find that …

  • Impacts of Early Childhood Education on Medium- and Long-Term Educational Outcomes

    Open AccessDana Charles Mccoy, Hirokazu Yoshikawa et al.ARTICLEEducational Researcher2017Cited by: 43References: 34

    Despite calls to expand early childhood education (ECE) in the United States, questions remain regarding its medium- and long-term impacts on educational outcomes. We use meta-analysis of 22 high-quality experimental and quasi-experimental studies conducted between 1960 and 2016 to find that on average, participation in ECE leads to statistically significant reductions in special education placement ( d = 0.33 SD , 8.1 percentage points) and grad…

  • Early Childhood Housing Instability and School Readiness

    Open AccessKathleen M Ziol‐guest, Kathleen M Ziol-Guest et al.ARTICLEChild Development2014

    This study assesses the consequences of housing instability during the first 5 years of a child's life for a host of school readiness outcomes. Using data from the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study (n = 2,810), this study examines the relation between multiple moves and children's language and literacy and behavior problems at age 5. The moderating role of poverty is further tested in this relation. The findings show that moving three or…

  • Grandparent Coresidence and Family Well-Being: Implications for Research and Policy

    Open AccessRachel E Dunifon, Rachel Dunifon et al.ARTICLEThe Annals of the American…2014Cited by: 34References: 37

    U.S. children today have increasingly diverse living arrangements. In 2012, 10 percent of children lived with at least one grandparent; 8 percent lived in three-generational households, consisting of a parent and a grandparent; while 2 percent lived with a grandparent and no parent in the household. This article reviews the literature on grandparent coresidence and presents new research on children coresiding with grandparents in modern families.…

  • Early-Childhood Poverty and Adult Attainment, Behavior, and Health

    Open AccessGreg J Duncan, Kathleen M Ziol‐guest et al.ARTICLEChild Development2010

    This article assesses the consequences of poverty between a child’s prenatal year and 5th birthday for several adult achievement, health, and behavior outcomes, measured as late as age 37. Using data from the Panel Study of Income Dynamics (1,589) and controlling for economic conditions in middle childhood and adolescence, as well as demographic conditions at the time of the birth, findings indicate statistically significant and, in some cases, q…

  • Nonstandard Work and Marital Instability: Evidence From the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth

    Open AccessAriel Kalil, Kathleen M Ziol‐guest et al.ARTICLEJournal of Marriage and the Family2010Cited by: 24References: 21

    This article replicated and extended Harriet Presser's (2000) investigation of the linkages between nonstandard work and marital instability. We reexplored this question using data from a sample of 2,893 newlywed couples from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (NLSY) and using different analytic techniques. In contrast to Presser, we found that the key dimension of husbands' and wives' employment was nonemployment. Similar to Presser, we f…

  • Job Insecurity and Change Over Time in Health Among Older Men and Women

    A Kalil, Andre C Kalil et al.ARTICLEThe Journals of Gerontology…2009Cited by: 5References: 5

    The correlation between job insecurity and health is different in men and women but may be clinically significant in both populations and is a potentially important threat to older adults' health and well-being

  • Early Childhood Poverty and Adult Body Mass Index

    Objectives. We estimated associations between poverty in early, middle, and later childhood and adult body mass index to further elucidate the effects of socioeconomic status on health. Methods. We conducted secondary analyses of data from men and women (N = 885) born between 1968 and 1975 who were tracked between their prenatal and birth years and adulthood in the nationally representative Panel Study of Income Dynamics. We used multivariate reg…

  • A Single Father's Shopping Bag: Purchasing Decisions in Single-Father Families

    Open AccessKathleen M Ziol‐guest, Kathleen M Ziol-GuestARTICLEJournal of Family Issues2009Cited by: 3References: 27

    Using data from the 1980 to 2003 panels of the Consumer Expenditure Survey, this article examines purchasing decisions in father-headed single-parent families. Single-father expenditures are compared to both married-parent expenditures and single-mother expenditures on 17 broad categories of household-level goods and services. Multivariate analysis finds that single fathers' consumption choices differ from bundles within married-parent households…

  • Teacher Support, School Goal Structures, and Teenage Mothers' School Engagement

    Open AccessAriel Kalil, Kathleen M Ziol‐guest et al.ARTICLEYouth & Society2008Cited by: 7References: 43

    This study investigates how perceptions of teacher support and achievement goal structures in the school environment correlate with school engagement, and whether depressive symptoms mediate or moderate this association, among 64 low-income teenage mothers. Controlling for prior grades, perceptions of teacher support correlate with higher levels of positive affect and lower levels of negative affect about school. Perceptions of an emphasis on mas…

  • Longitudinal Patterns of Nonresident Fathers' Involvement: The Role of Resources and Relations

    Open AccessR M Ryan, Ariel Kalil et al.ARTICLEJournal of Marriage and the Family2008Cited by: 36References: 32

    Using data from the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study, we examined patterns of nonresident father involvement 1 and 3 years after a nonmarital birth (N = 893). Cluster analyses were used to determine patterns of involvement across different father behaviors. About half of fathers displayed low involvement when children were 1 and 3 years old, one fourth of fathers maintained high involvement, and equal remaining proportions increased or …
