Abstract: | Basic research about women, in the areas of sex roles, in family, stratification, etc., has been hindered by the omission of nonemployed women as participants in the stratification system. Using a sample survey of 501 women, this paper presents a measure of the prestige ranking of nonemployed women — the housewife — which is compatible with the Duncan Socioeconomic Index. The score is relatively stable across social categories and suffers little aggrandizement effect, making it a suitable tool for routine use. |
