abstract: 'Although the economic independence of women has been greatly advanced in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
recent decades, it continues to lag far behind men''s in the Netherlands
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and elsewhere. The negative consequences of motherhood are an important
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
driving force behind women''s abiding lower income. Although mother''s
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
lower earnings have received a substantial amount of attention from
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
scholars and the underlying mechanisms are well established,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
surprisingly little is known about mitigating factors. This article
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
contributes to the literature by investigating how the earnings
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
disadvantage of mothers is affected by partner characteristics and by
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
parity. We formulate hypotheses about the effect of a partner''s working
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
hours, his earnings and his gender role orientations, on the earnings
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
disadvantage associated with motherhood. Furthermore, we examine the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
role of parity in this earnings disadvantage. Our hypotheses are tested
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
using longitudinal data from the first three waves of the Netherlands
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Kinship Panel Study. Our hypotheses concerning partner characteristics
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
are not supported. The earnings disadvantage of mothers is hardly
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
affected by them. We do find that parity matters greatly in examining
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the effect that motherhood has on women''s earnings. The transition to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
motherhood has a much larger effect on earnings than the birth of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
subsequent children. The implications of these findings and the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
specificity of the Dutch context are discussed.'
