In addition, the relationships of selected variables to these statuses were investigated.

The Employed Versus The Nonemployed Mother: The Effects On The Seventh-Day Adventist Family In Southwestern Michigan, A. Melville Lawson
Dissertations

The purpose of this study was to research the effects that the nonemployed and employed Seventh-day Adventist mother, in southwestern Michigan, has on the family.
The broad hypothesis for this study is that nonemployed mothers have a more positive effect on families, in general, as opposed to mothers who were employed outside of the home.
Two hundred Seventh-day Adventist mothers, after completing a specially designed instrument, were placed in various categories depending on the numbers of …

Method. An analysis of the relevant literature from religious and secular authorities was made to isolate factors deemed important to adequate premarital preparation. These factors were then rank-ordered.
A random sample of seven hundred presently married Seventh-day Adventists from the northwestern, midwestern, …
