abstract: 'Marriage and work have long been central to debates regarding poverty
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and the family. Although ample research has demonstrated their negative
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
association with child poverty, both marriage and work have undergone
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
major transformations over recent decades. Consequently, it is plausible
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
that their association with child poverty may have also changed. Using
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
10 waves of U.S. Census Current Population Survey data from the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Luxembourg Income Study, this study examined the relationships among
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
marriage, work, and relative measures of child poverty from 1974 to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2010. The results indicated that both marriage and work still decrease
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the odds of child poverty. However, time interactions showed marriage''s
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
negative association with child poverty has declined in magnitude,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
whereas work''s negative association with child poverty has increased in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
magnitude. These findings underscore the historically varying influence
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of demographic characteristics for poverty. They also suggest the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
limitations of overemphasizing marriage and the growing importance of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
work for reducing child poverty in America.'
