Marriage Squeeze Among Highly Educated: Living Arrange-ments of Young Highly Educated Women in Europe

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

This paper examines the role of occupational resources (field of occupation, socio-economic status, and income) in the odds of having a highly educated partner, having a partner with lower education, and staying single. The analysis of the EU-SILC 2013 data demonstrate that women with better jobs and higher incomes have higher odds of living in a homogamous union with a highly educated partner. The data also show that if high resource women do not live with highly educated men, they are less likely to mar-ry down compared to women with fewer resources and are more likely to stay single. Fur-thermore, the analysis demonstrates that women working in female-dominated professions are more likely to marry down and that the effect of the field cannot be explained by fewer personal resources. We also tested the idea that the link between individual resources and living arrangements is moderated by the female employment rate. We demonstrate that women are more likely to partner down in countries with higher female labor force participa-tion. However, this tendency does not hold for high-income women.
