Summarizes the results of studies of nine industrialized countries (US & Europe) in an effort to determine the effects of female education level & employment opportunities on family formation in a variety of cultural contexts. The results are interpreted here within the framework of Gary Becker's (1981) theories on marriage & family. In all countries examined, higher female education has had a profound effect on marriage & birth rates, but widely varying effects on cohabitation. It is concluded that increased female education only begins to delay marriage when cohabitation becomes an alternative route for emancipation from the parental household. 6 References. M. Wagner
