Housework, market work, and "doing gender" when marital satisfaction declines

Article Abstract:

The influence of marital satisfaction decline on subsequent chances that married women in Japan allocate more time to market work and/or to housework, conditional on their labor market position, is investigated to test the gender display hypothesis as an alternative to the human capital accumulation hypothesis. The evidence supportive of gender display hypothesis in Japan has implied that the extent to which could economically prepare them, is constrained by gender display in ideological and institutional settings similar to Japan.

Homogamy among the divorced and the never married on marital history in recent decades: Evidence from vital statistics data

Article Abstract:

The investigation of whether divorced and never married persons tend to marry within their own marital history group is presented. The results have shown that the never married and the divorced are more likely to marry within their marital history group than to intermarry and also indicated that, although the tendency toward marital history homogamy unaccounted for by group size, age and education persisted throughout the period of 1970-1988, it diminished slightly.

Marital history homogamy between the divorced and the never married among non-Hispanic whites

Article Abstract:

The homogamous tendency on marital history is simply a by-product of couples' homogamous tendencies on age, socioeconomic status and parenthood status while marital history homogamy may reflect spousal preferences for similarity in marital history. Regression models are applied to unmarried non-Hispanic white men and women from the Panel Study Income Dynamics, 1985-1997, in order to test hypotheses implied by these two perspectives.
