It Pays to Value Family: Work and Family Tradeoffs ReconsideredPeter CappelliUniversity of Pennsylvania Wharton School - Center for Human Resources; National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER); University of Pennsylvania - Management Department Jill ConstantineWilliams College Clint ChadwickUniversity of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign - School of Labor & Employment Relations Undated Abstract: We use longitudinal data to assess whether individuals who place greater importance on marriage and family pay a price for that priority in subsequent labor market success. Males placing a high priority on family before entering the labor market earn more, contrary to behavioral research but consistent with the economics literature. More important, females who place a high priority on family do not suffer in terms of subsequent earnings, contrary to most previous research.
