Are motherhood penalties and fatherhood bonuses warranted? Comparing pro-work behaviors and conditions of mothers, fathers, and non-parents (2011, background): “Despite a growth in interest in the differential treatment of working mothers and fathers, surprisingly little research has investigated differences in mother’s and father’s pro-work behaviors—behaviors consistent with the ‘ideal’’ worker—or, for that matter, whether parents display fewer pro-work…”
Attitudes toward risk and self-employment of young workers☆ (2010, background): “In selecting a sample for analysis I focus only on men, who account for 6403 of the original sample members, because self-employment decisions of women are arguably different from those of men in various dimensions (Hundley, 2000, Taniguchi, 2002).”
Explaining the Gender Gap in Help to Parents: The Importance of Employment (2004, background): “Both the amount and proportion of household income that women earn are negatively associated with the time they spend on housework (Brines, 1994; Hersch & Stratton, 1997; Hundley, 2000) and mothering (Budig & England, 2001).”
Foundations of High Impact Entrepreneurship (2008, background): “Liquidity constraints have also been examined for African-Americans (Bates, 1985), ethnicity (Fairlie and Meyer, 1996), gender (Hundley, 2000) and immigrants (Borjas, 1986).”
The Rewards of Entrepreneurship: Exploring the Incomes, Wealth, and Economic Well–Being of Entrepreneurial Households (2011, methodology): “More complex patterns of earnings have also been reported, largely reflecting the heterogeneity of the work undertaken by the self-employed (Meager & Bates, 2001) and individual characteristics (Burke, FitzRoy, & Nolan, 2000; Hundley, 2000).”
Institutions, Latent Entrepreneurship, and Self–Employment: An International Comparison (2012, background): “), and psychological costs (Hundley, 2000). The risks involved may also affect the decision (Kihlstrom & Laffont, 1979; Parker, 1997). Gimeno et al. (2000) develop a threshold model for entrepreneurial exit which includes switching costs as an important determinant.”
Gender differences in self‐employment (2005, background): “Also, Hundley (2000) addresses the difference in self-employment earnings of men and women, but not self-employment itself.”
Failure or voluntary exit? Reassessing the female underperformance hypothesis (2015, background): “…related to females'likelihood of entering self-employment(Bonet et al., 2013; Greenhaus and Callanan, 1994), others suggest that it also represents a potential constraint on how much time they can devote to the business and the level of earning they can derive from it (Budig, 2006; Hundley, 2000).”
Why are some people more likely to become small-businesses owners than others: Entrepreneurship entry and industry-specific barriers (2014, background): “Married men are particularly likely to become self-employed, perhaps because they have greater opportunities to specialise in high-potential enterprises while relying on their wives to specialise in household production (Hundley, 2000; Parker, 2008).”
