Using logistic regression, the author found that sociodemographic factors, particularly race, education, and number of children/young adults, more than attitudinal factors, distinguished recipients of child support from nonrecipient among formerly married working mothers m 1988 and 1991. In 199l, for formerly married mothers, child-care affinity was the only attitudinal characteristics associated with the likelihood of receiving child support. Because of the small sample sizes, fir clings about never married working mothers were more ambiguous. Policy and practice implications are discussed.
