1.	Labor Supply of Women Potentially Eligible for Family Assistance Ph.D. Dissertation, Center for Human Resource Research, The Ohio State University, 1972 Cohort(s): Mature Women Publisher: UMI - University Microfilms, Bell and Howell Information and Learning Keyword(s): Employment; Household Income; Poverty; Taxes; Wages; Welfare; Wives The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between hours of work and key welfare variables that have been omitted from other studies of the determinants of the labor supply of the poor. The study found a strong negative relationship between hours worked and "potential other income," which implies that, other things being equal, the amount of time spent working by poor married women will be inversely related to the level of welfare benefits for which they would be eligible without working.

2.	The Impact of Welfare Benefit Levels and Tax Rates on the Labor Supply of Poor Women Review of Economics and Statistics 57,2 (May 1975): 236-238. Also: http://www.jstor.org/stable/1924007 Cohort(s): Mature Women Publisher: Harvard University Press Keyword(s): Earnings; Taxes; Wages; Welfare Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. This paper incorporates wage income concepts into a model of work-leisure choice. The labor supply of poor women is shown to depend upon the market wage rate adjusted for the implicit welfare tax rate, potential other income and the home wage rate. For both black and white groups, potential other income is negatively related to hours worked while the net market wage rate is not significantly related to hours worked.

Withdrawal from the Labor Force by Middle-Aged Men, 1966-1967 Report, Columbus OH: Center for Human Resource Research, The Ohio State University, 1971 Cohort(s): Older Men Publisher: Center for Human Resource Research Keyword(s): Health/Health Status/SF-12 Scale; Marital Status; Quits; Schooling; Unemployment; Work Attitudes; Work History This paper analyzes the characteristics of 98 middle-aged men who withdrew from the labor force between the summer of 1966 and the summer of 1967. Further, it presents the circumstances under which these changes in labor force status occurred and ascertains the extent to which they represent irreversible moves out of the labor force.

5.	Potential Recipients of Family Assistance Payments: Characteristics and Labor Market Behavior Report, Columbus OH: Center for Human Resource Research, The Ohio State University, 1972 Cohort(s): Mature Women, Older Men, Young Men, Young Women Publisher: Center for Human Resource Research Keyword(s): Health/Health Status/SF-12 Scale; Labor Force Participation; Rural Areas; Unemployment; Wages; Welfare This report analyzes characteristics and labor market experiences of families that would have been eligible for a family assistance payment in the mid- and late 1960s had an early version of the Nixon Administration's Family Assistance Plan (FAP) been in effect. Data are derived from initial interviews with four probability samples of the civilian population of the United States: men 45-50 years of age; women 30-44; and men and women 14-24. Each group of interviewees contains about 3,000 white and 1,400 black persons. Rural origins, the broken nature of many families, and large numbers of children are important determinants of potential FAP eligibility. Adult men and women in poverty generally hold as favorable attitudes toward work as their nonpoor counterparts. Employment experiences (i.e. occupational assignments, weeks worked in base year, and rates of pay) are very important as are the health status, education, training, and several other characteristics. Implications for national policy are discussed.

6.	Career Thresholds, Volume 2: A Longitudinal Study of the Educational and Labor Market Experience of Male Youth Washington DC: US GPO, 1971 Cohort(s): Young Men Publisher: U.S. Government Printing Office Keyword(s): Dropouts; Educational Aspirations/Expectations; Family Influences; High School; Job Training; Mobility The present report, the second in the series on the NLS of Young Men, summarizes some of the findings of the second round of interviews with that cohort that were conducted in the autumn of l967. Based exclusively on tabular data, its primary purpose is to describe the magnitude and patterns of change that occurred in the educational and labor market status of the youth during the 12-month period between the first and second surveys. The age span covered in the survey includes those years of a young man's life in which he first becomes integrated into the world of work. This is a critical period in the total socialization process. The young man's subsequent labor market behavior is influenced substantially by his educational and early labor market experiences. In this report, the authors have begun an analysis of these experiences by focusing on the magnitude and character of various changes that have occurred over a one-year period--in school enrollment status, labor force participation, unemployment experience, occupational and interfirm mobility, and educational aspirations.
