The Value of Employment to Mothers of Young Children.
Thomson, Elizabeth
Journal of Marriage and the Family, v42 n3 p551-66 Aug 1980
The value of employment for mothers is dominated by opportunity costs for the current parental role. Differences between findings for full and part- time employment expectations were the greater importance of extrinsic and intrinsic rewards, respectively. Part-time employment was more compatible with the parental role. (Author)
