[excerpted from news article] The "dumb blonde" stereotype is simply wrong, according to a new national study of young baby boomers. The study of 10,878 Americans found that white women who said their natural hair color was blonde had an average IQ score within 3 points of women with brown, red and black hair. [Based on research by Zagorsky, Jay L. "Are Blondes Really Dumb?" Economics Bulletin 36,1 (2016): 401-410] |

Keyword(s): Family Studies; Wives; Wives, Income; Wives, Work; Women's Roles Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. This article reports on Elizabeth Menaghan's study of working wives. Using NLSY79 data, she finds that a wife's job "can help compensate for a husband's occupational difficulties," however it also "can increase conflict when her husband is heavily involved and relatively successful at his job. In this case, a husband may view his wife's job as less necessary and prefer that she stay at home." |

Master Minds: Ohioans' Research May One Day Change The World Plain Dealer, September 3, 1995; Pg. 8 Cohort(s): Children of the NLSY79, NLSY79 Publisher: Plain Dealer Publishing Co. Keyword(s): Child Development; Maternal Employment Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. This article reports on Parcel and Menaghan's study "Parents' Jobs and Children's Lives," which analyzes the effect of parental employment on child development. The study, which utilizes NLSY79 and Children of the NLSY79 data, found that "a combination of wage level, work hours and job complexity is what determines whether children are helped or hindered by their parents' occupations." Also, the researchers discovered that a mother staying at home only benefits her child if the job she returns to is of a low-skill level. Mothers who stay home during the first three years but then return to a challenging job were found to have children suffering from more adverse effects. |
