Abstract:
|
This exploratory quantitative study uses stratification theory to examine the effect of micro-level and
macro-level factors on conflicts between work and family for women of color and white women. Using GSS data, the
authors explore women’s individual characteristics, human capital factors, and social structure to try to
understand the number and type of conflicts working women experience. Data analysis shows that women of color
were much more likely than white women to be in one-earner households; conversely, white women were much more
likely to be in two-earner households. Evidence of a race-segregated labor force also emerged. Regression
analysis suggests that predictive factors for number and type of conflicts women experience are different for
women of color than for white women. |
