Bagozzi, Richard P.; Van Loo, M. Francis
Multivariate Behavioral Research, v23 n1 p3-34 Jan 1988
Longitudinal study of 166 couples indicated wives' participation in labor force is not negatively related to size of families. The study, which used a key informant methodology, the LISREL model, and a recursive model, also indicated labor force participation of wives and family size are codetermined by achievement motivation, sex role norms, and value of children.
