This article introduces Gender Stratified Monopoly (GSM), an adaptation…

Manning, Wendy D.; Cohen, Jessica A. – Journal of Marriage and Family, 2012
An ongoing question remains for family researchers: Why does a positive association between cohabitation and marital dissolution exist when one of the primary reasons to cohabit is to test relationship compatibility? Drawing on recently collected data from the 2006-2008 National Survey of Family Growth, the authors examined whether premarital…

Schrimshaw, Eric W.; Siegel, Karolynn; Downing, Martin J., Jr.; Parsons, Jeffrey T. – Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 2013

Bisexual men are less likely to disclose, and more likely to conceal (i.e., a desire to hide), their sexual orientation than gay men. Theory suggests that this may…

Drefahl, Sven – Journal of Marriage and Family, 2012
Numerous studies have shown that married women and men experience the lowest mortality.

Denmark is one of the forerunners of developments in…

Schneider, Daniel – Journal of Marriage and Family, 2011
I examine the contested finding that men and women engage in gender performance through housework. Prior scholarship has found a curvilinear association between earnings share and housework that has been interpreted as evidence of gender performance. I reexamine these findings by conducting the first such analysis to use high-quality time diary…
