Social Status, Mobility and Premarital Pregnancy: A Case of Brazil
Brock, E. Wilbur; Iutaka, Sugiyama
J Marriage Fam, 32, 2, 284-291, May '70
The factors found to be related significantly to premarital pregnancy were educational attainment, social status of father, social status of husband, and social mobility. The data suggest the premarital pregnancy has significance for social mobility through the process of mate selection. Premarital conception may result in middle class females being downwardly mobile to find mates. Presented at Southern Sociological Society, New Orleans, 1969. (Author)
