Backlash Against Working Mothers, Kala Jean Melchiori

Gender Differences In Pay Equity: An Examination Of The Working Adolescent, Melanie L. Saari
Theses and Dissertations (Comprehensive)

Contained in both the survey and interview were questions pertaining to remuneration, employment, negotiation, gender stereotypes and attitudes about money. Results indicated that young females seem to receive a better …
