The Education and Labor Market Outcomes of Adolescent Fathers
The author examines the educational and labor market outcomes of young men in the United States, with a particular emphasis on adolescent fathers. She finds that men who were teen fathers complete fewer years of education and are less likely to finish high school compared to men who were not teen fathers. These educational deficits persist even after family and personal characteristics are taken into account. Teen fathers enter the labor market e…

Child Support Enforcement for Teenage Fathers
Data from the NLSY (National Longitudinal Survey of Labor Market Experiences-Youth Cohort) indicate that about 7.3 percent of teenage males become fathers and that very few of these fathers live with their children. Father absence and the concurrent increase in female-headed households are closely associated with the impoverishment of children. Most absent teen fathers never come into contact with the child support enforcement program, and the ex…
Longitudinal Evidence of the Changing Socio‐Economic Profile of a State Lottery Market
This longitudinal study of Indiana lottery expenditures tracks that market from a time when all play was in games offered by other states until the state offered a full portfolio of games. Both the socio‐economic characteristics of players and the nature of their play have changed. Participation doubled when the Indiana games began, and it continues to increase, albeit more slowly. Lottery play is regressive, and has become increasingly regressiv…
The Family Background and Attitudes of Teen Fathers
A greater percentage of teen fathers than of teenagers who are not fathers come from poor and unstable households whose members are less educated. Generally speaking, for Whites, being a teenage father is associated with having a low self-esteem, an external locus of control, and conservative sex-role attitudes, whereas for Blacks, it is not. Data are from the National Longitudinal Survey of Labor Market Experiences-Youth Cohort

Interpersonal Control and Courtship Aggression
This research examines the relationship between aggression and the interpersonal process of control during courtship. A sample of white heterosexual college dating relationships is examined. Data are collected on men and women inflicting and sustaining minor and severe aggression during courtship. The results show that across relationships, men are no more likely than women to control. This challenges the notion that men are more likely to contro…
State Lotteries and Crime
The impact of having a state lottery on the rate of crime against property in that state is estimated. Arguments in the standard economic model of criminal activity employed here include the unemployment rate, real income per capita, presence of the death penalty in the state as a proxy for general severity of punishment, police officers per capita, the percentage of population between the ages of 5 and 24, and the presence of a state lottery. Be…

Models for Bivariate Count Data with an Application to Teenage Delinquency and Paternity
In this article, a new model, the bivariate lognormal Poisson, is developed to examine the relationships between two count processes. This model is an extension of Schoenberg's (1985) univariate lognormal Poisson model. Although computationally more cumbersome, it is substantially more flexible than previous bivariate count data models because it allows heterogeneity and correlation to be parameterized independently. As an application, the proces…
Gender Identity, Self-Esteem, and Physical and Sexual Abuse in Dating Relationships
Peter J. Burke, Jan E. Stets, Maureen A. Pirog-Good, Gender Identity, Self-Esteem, and Physical and Sexual Abuse in Dating Relationships, Social Psychology Quarterly, Vol. 51, No. 3 (Sep., 1988), pp. 272-285
Violence in Dating Relationships
This paper examines violence in white, heterosexual, dating relationships among college students and highlights the gender differences that are found. Our analysis focuses on particular individual and relationship-specific characteristics that influence the propensity for men and women to use and receive violence. The results strongly suggest that seriousness of the relationship and the personality dimensions of instrumentality and expressiveness…
A Simultaneous Probit Model of Crime and Employment for Black and White Teenage Males
This study examines the relationships between the employability and criminality of white and black male teenagers. A disequilibrium model of employment and crime is formulated and estimated as a simultaneous probit equation system. Our results show that black teenagers who are employed engage in fewer criminal activities. Thus, it appears that blacks view employment and crime as alternative income-generating activities. On the other hand, the cri…
