| Abstract | This study investigated American and Japanese college students' attitudes towards maternal employment. A total of 248 American students at Ursinus College in Pennsylvania and 98 Japanese students at Tohokugakuin University in Japan participated in the study. Students answered a questionnaire about the consequences of maternal employment for children and their own mothers' work status. The study found that both American and Japanese males perceived the costs of maternal employment as being higher than did females. Overall, the Japanese students were more likely to perceive maternal employment as exacting greater costs than American students. The findings suggest that Japanese believe, more so than Americans, that children lose out when mothers work outside the home. The American students' greater actual experience with mothers working outside the home may have contested myths about the negative impact of maternal employment. Contains 14 references. (MDM) |
