The Hidden Social Costs of Precarious Employment: Parental Co-Residence, Marriage Timing, and Political Participation During Young Adulthood Ph.D. Dissertation, Department of Sociology, University of California, Los Angeles, 2015 Cohort(s): NLSY97 Publisher: Department of Sociology, University of California, Los Angeles Keyword(s): Employment, Intermittent/Precarious; Marital Status; Political Attitudes/Behaviors/Efficacy; Residence, Return to Parental Home/Delayed Homeleaving Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. Precarious employment--that is, jobs that entail a nonstandard contract, are short term, and/or do not provide fringe benefits like health insurance and retirement savings--has become a widely discussed topic in the media and a key research topic among scholars. Despite increasing scholarly and public interest in precarious employment, however, few studies have considered the effects of such employment beyond typical work and career outcomes. Using longitudinal panel data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1997, this study examines the effect of precarious employment on the social and political lives of contemporary young adults. |
