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.'
