But military wives earn less than civilian wives, and this study seeks to understand why. The authors find that military wives, knowing they are likely to move frequently, are willing to accept jobs that offer a lower wage rather than to use more of their remaining time at a location to find a higher-wage job. Compared with civilian wives, military wives tend to work somewhat less if they have young children but somewhat more if their children are older. 606 $aMilitary spouses$xEmployment$zUnited States 606 $aMilitary spouses$xSalaries, etc$zUnited States 606 $aMarried women$xEmployment$zUnited States 606 $aWives$xSalaries, etc$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$xArmed Forces$xRecruiting, enlistment, etc 615 0$aMilitary spouses$xEmployment 615 0$aMilitary spouses$xSalaries, etc 615 0$aMarried women$xEmployment 615 0$aWives$xSalaries, etc 676 $a355.1/2 701 $aHosek$b James R$0879929 712 02$aUnited States.$bDepartment of Defense.$bOffice of the Secretary of Defense. 712 02$aNational Defense Research Institute (U.S.) 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910220136903321 996 $aMarried to the military$92037043 997 $aUNINA
