Land Use and Family Formation in the Settlement of the US Great Plains
In agricultural settings, environment shapes patterns of settlement and land use. Using the Great Plains of the United States during the period of its initial Euro-American settlement (1880-1940) as an analytical lens, this article explores whether the same environmental factors that determine settlement timing and land use-those that indicate suitability for crop-based agriculture-also shape initial family formation, resulting in fewer and small…

The Effects of Hospital Characteristics and Radical Organizational Change on the Relative Standing of Health Care Professions
Kevin T. Leicht, Mary L. Fennell, Kristine M. Witkowski, The Effects of Hospital Characteristics and Radical Organizational Change on the Relative Standing of Health Care Professions, Journal of Health and Social Behavior, Vol. 36, No. 2 (Jun., 1995), pp. 151-167
The Effects of Gender Segregation, Labor Force Participation, and Family Roles on the Earnings of Young Adult Workers
This analysis takes a life-course approach to the study of gender inequality in earnings among young adults. The authors construct hypotheses that assess the effects of family role accumulation, earnings atrophy and occupational choice, occupational segregation, and statistical discrimination. The authors find considerable support for the hypothesis that the effects of current labor force attachment, work experience, and occupational segregation …
Organic-solvent water pollution and low birth weight in Michigan
This pilot study explored the association between a measure of water pollution caused by benzene or chlorinated solvents and the incidence of low birth weights for white residents of Michigan counties. A positive relationship between water pollution by these contaminants and the per cent of low-weight births (less than 2,500 grams, or about 5.5 pounds) resulted despite controls for the incidence of teenaged childbearing, infrequent prenatal care,…
