About two-fifths of the young women interviewed in 1968 had changed their plans for age 35 by the time of their interview in 1970. These revised plans are consistent with observed rates of labor force participation of women aged 35-44. Also, more young women are unemployed in 1970 than in 1968. Among non-married young women who were employed in 1968, 30 percent of those who married by 1970 withdrew from the labor force as opposed to only four percent of those who remained unmarried. Almost one-half of the nonstudent employed young women changed employers at least once between 1968 and 1970, with slightly fewer blacks having done so voluntarily. Other correlates of interfirm movement are a change in marital status, change in geographical location, change in occupation or rate of pay, acquisition of training, and a change in job satisfaction.
