Abstract: | We used 1997 International Social Survey Programme data from 14 countries to examine the relationship of job attribute preferences
to family responsibilities, employment, and paid work hours. Separate regression analyses for women and men examined whether
family responsibilities (marriage, children, spousal employment, and housework responsibility) predicted job attribute preferences.
Many family responsibilities were significant predictors of men's and women's extrinsic and intrinsic preferences. Family
responsibilities also predicted women's flexibility preferences. We next examined whether job attribute preferences were associated
with employment and weekly paid work hours when family responsibilities were controlled. Job attribute preferences showed
several significant relationships to women's and men's employment and several significant relationships to women's paid work
hours. |
