abstract: 'Increases in the association between spouses'' earnings have the
|
||
|
|
||
|
potential to increase inequality as marriages increasingly consist of
|
||
|
|
||
|
two high-earning or two low-earning partners. This article uses
|
||
|
|
||
|
log-linear models and data from the March Current Population Survey to
|
||
|
|
||
|
describe trends in the association between spouses'' earnings and
|
||
|
|
||
|
estimate their contribution to growing earnings inequality among married
|
||
|
|
||
|
couples from 1967 to 2005. The results indicate that increases in
|
||
|
|
||
|
earnings inequality would have been about 25\%-30\% lower than observed
|
||
|
|
||
|
in the absence of changes in the association, depending on the
|
||
|
|
||
|
inequality measure used. Three components of these changes and how they
|
||
|
|
||
|
vary across the earnings distribution are explored.'
