Influences on Gender-Role Attitudes during the Transition to Adulthood
Bridging the Racial Divide in the United States
Using data for national samples of high school seniors between 1976 and 1992, we examine gender differences in racial attitudes in the United States We find an important effect of gender on social distance attitudes: Females express more favorable attitudes than males, and this gender difference is significantly greater among whites than blacks The gender effect is not explained by gender differences in interracial friendship, religiosity, or pol…
Gender-Related Change in Occupational Aspirations
This article analyzes change in the occupational aspirations of young people in the United States between the late 1960s and the late 1970s. During this period, the change in occupational aspirations was gender related, occuring primarily among women. Because this change preceded significant change in the distribution of women in the occupational structure, the authors argue that it was primarily a manifestation of cultural change resulting from …
The Gender Gap in Earnings at Career Entry
We propose a new approach to analyzing gender differences in wages. This approach identifies several alternative explanatory mechanisms to account for the sorting of women and men into different types of jobs that offer different levels of reward. Because labor market rewards derive from labor market positions, we study matching processes operating at the micro level that sort workers into existing slots in a given macro-level structure of jobs a…
Characterizing Latent Structure
There are many situations in the social sciences when multiple indicators of a smaller set of latent constructs or dimensions are available and one wants to use those indicators in combination to develop valid and reliable measures of the latent constructs or dimensions. Multiple indicators are used when no single indicator is considered highly reliable and may be used in two different ways to measure latent constructs or dimensions. Techniques b…

Women's Educational Attainment and the Timing of Entry into Parenthood
Previous research on the relationship between women's educational attainment and the timing of entry into parenthood has produced conflicting results. Although studies have consistently found that educational attainment has a delaying effect on entry into parenthood, there has been disagreement about the existence of a reciprocal effect of the timing of entry into parenthood on educational attainment. This paper attempts to resolve that disagreem…

The Order of Events in the Transition to Adulthood
The transition from adolescence to adulthood is marked by a series of interrelated events that represent movement from economic dependence and participation in the family of origin to economic independence and establishment of a family of procreation.' Among the most significant of these events are role changes, including movement out of the student role and entry into the adult roles of worker, spouse, and parent. At present, little is known abo…

The Transition to Adulthood
The transition to adulthood involves a number of role changes, but the timing of the transition in large part, is determined causally by educational attainment and age at marriage. These two variables are related positively for both sexes, but because women marry earlier than men, the relationship is stronger for women. Analyzing data from a fifteen year follow-up study of the high school students studied by Coleman in The Adolescent Society (196…

Effects of the Timing of Marriage and First Birth of the Spacing of Subsequent Births
Analyzing data from a fifteen-year follow-up survey of high school students originally surveyed in 1957–58 and resurveyed in 1973–74, this paper examines the effects of the timing of marriage and first birth on subsequent child spacing, holding constant the effects of other variables that may be sources of spuriousness. The results suggest that age at first marriage has a causal effect on the occurrence of a short first birth interval and that ag…

Sex Differences in Educational Aspirations and Expectations
Previous studies of sex differences in adolescents’ goals for educational attainment have focused on either educational aspirations or expectations and found that socioeconomic background has a greater effect on the educational goals of girls than boys, and that academic ability has a greater effect on the educational goals of boys than girls. Almost all of these studies are based on students who attended high school between 1955 and 1960. This p…
Effects of the Number and Spacing of Children on Marital and Parental Satisfaction
Analyzing data from a fifteen-year follow-up study of high school students originally surveyed in 1957–58 and resurveyed in 1973–74, this paper examines the effects of the number and spacing of children on marital and parental satisfaction. The results suggest that the number of children in the family has no direct effect on marital satisfaction but has a direct negative effect on parental satisfaction. Childspacing, as measured by the length of …

Measuring the Effects of the Timing of Marriage and First Birth
Age at 1st marriage and age at 1st birth are highly correlated and have been used interchangeably as indicators of timing of entry into adult family roles. This paper considers the measurement and analytic specification of the effects of the timing of entry into marriage and parenthood when estimates of the independent causal effects of these variables are desired. It is suggested that these effects be analyzed by estimating the effects of age at…

Effects of the Timing of Marriage and First Birth on Fertility
Both age at 1st marriage and age at 1st birth are known to bear negative relationships to family size but the causal nature of these relationships is not well understood.

Dimensions of Marriage Happiness
In an earlier article, Orden and Bradburn (1968) presented a model for the structure of marital happiness which consisted of two independent dimensions, one of marital satisfactions and the other of marital tensions. Further examination of their data and the introduction of a new variable into the analysis suggests that their measures of satisfactions and tensions were only two of a larger number of variables related to general feelings of positi…

Sex Differences in Occupational Aspirations and Expectations
The research reported in this paper examines sex differences in the prestige and sex-type of occupational aspirations and expectations held by adolescents. Sex differences in the discrepancy between aspirations and expectations are examined, and the effects of socioeconomic background and academic achievement on the unmeasured construct of occupational ambition are compared for the two sexes. The study is based on a random sample of eleventh-grad…
