Rexroat, Cynthia
Journal of Marriage and the Family, v52 n3 p591-601 Aug 1990
Examined effects of household structure on labor force status of female heads of families with minor children using the March 1985 Current Population Survey. Results suggest that models of labor force behavior are misspecified if female heads of families are not analyzed separately by race and marital status. (Author/ABL)
