Education, Work, and Family Events in Women's Lives

This book investigates how educational expansion, the trend towards the
service society and the German unification affect East and West German
women's life courses and family lives. It focuses on educational enrolment,
educational attainment level, labour force participation, career resources,
social origin, the educational match among partners as well as historical
periods and examines their consequences on women's entry into first motherhood
as well as partnership formation and dissolution processes. Using
longitudinal data from the National Educational Panel Study (NEPS),multivariate
methods such as event history analysis were applied. The findings
suggest that women's entry into motherhood during full-time education
is highly dependent on women's age, social origin and the policy measures
in a country.
