abstract: 'BACKGROUND
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Residential relocations of couple households are associated with
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
increases in objective gender inequality within families in paid and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
unpaid work. Little is known about how couples'' relocations affect
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
subjective outcomes such as attitudes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
OBJECTIVE
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We examine whether gender role attitudes change when families move
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
residentially in Britain, empirically addressing potential explanations.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We also assess heterogeneity in outcomes by relocation distance and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
relocation motive.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
METHOD
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We use linear fixed-effects regression on a representative sample of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
6,415 partnered women and 6,220 partnered men from the British Household
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Panel Survey (1991-2007).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
RESULTS
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Our results show that, on average, an individual''s gender role attitudes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
were not significantly altered following a couple''s relocation. As an
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
exception, we find that when couples exclusively relocated for the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
female partner''s job, men''s gender role attitudes became more
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
egalitarian post-relocation. Preliminary evidence also suggests that
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
women''s gender role attitudes are potentially affected by their exposure
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to residential contexts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
CONTRIBUTION
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Despite widespread evidence regarding increases in objective gender
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
inequality following couple relocations in Britain, our findings suggest
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
that this does not permeate into subjective outcomes such as attitudes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Beyond expanding the knowledge on subjective sources of gender
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
inequality that follow couples'' relocations, our results also contribute
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to a better understanding of the dynamics of change in gender role
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
attitudes over the life course.'
