The Effect of Family Migration on Wives' Employment: How Long Does It Last?
Spitze, Glenna
Social Science Quarterly, v65 n1 p21-36 Mar 1984
The effects of family migration (1) are negative for employment status, weeks worked, and earnings, null for weeks unemployed, and marginal for attitudes; (2) are similar for married women in their 20s, 30s, and 40s; and (3) do not last beyond the first or second year after a move. (Author/RM)
