SES-1022183 PI：Joya Misra机构：马萨诸塞州大学，阿默斯特SES-1020831 PI：Stephanie Moller机构：北卡罗来纳州大学，夏洛特本项目将评估妇女的贫困率和贫困的深度/严重程度如何因婚姻和父母身份而变化，以及家庭福利和工作家庭政策是否可以解释这些变化。这项研究将在Misra-Budig-Böeckmann家庭政策数据库的基础上进行扩展，通过将政策数据与卢森堡收入研究相结合，确定政策如何影响22个国家和5个时期的妇女卖淫的风险和程度。更广泛的影响：通过研究22个国家和5个时期的各种工作-家庭政策对贫困的影响，这项研究将提供有关特定政策与贫困结果之间关系的重要答案。

SES-1022183PI: Joya MisraInstitution: University of Massachusetts, AmherstSES-1020831PI: Stephanie MollerInstitution: University of North Carolina, CharlotteThis project will assess how poverty rates and the depth/severity of poverty vary for women by marital and parenthood status, and whether family benefits and work-family policies explain these variations. This research will expand on the Misra-Budig-Böeckmann Family Policy Database to determine how policies affect the risk of and the depth of impoverishment among women across twenty-two countries and five time periods by combining the policy data with the Luxembourg Income Study (LIS). This will allow stronger claims about the relationships between work-family policies and poverty.Broader Impacts: By examining the impact of a variety of work-family policies across twenty-two nations and five time periods on poverty, this research will provide important answers about the relationship between particular policies and poverty outcomes.
