Women, Marital Status, and Work Opportunities in 1880 Colorado
利用1880年科罗拉多州人口普查数据，研究个人和地区特征如何影响单身与已婚女性的劳动参与率，发现两类女性的决定因素差异显著但组内一致，且受经济和社会条件影响。
This study uses a sample drawn from the 1880 Manuscript Census of Colorado to investigate the influence of individual and regional characteristics on the labor force participation rates of both single and married women in areas with different production characteristics. Results show that the determinants of labor force participation differ considerably for single and married women, but they also show strong consistency within each group. Labor force participation rates are also influenced by general economic and social conditions.
