Abstract
This paper uses repeated cross sections from the General Social Survey to test whether married women's labor force participation responds to how traditional her attitudes are concerning a woman's role. Such attitudes are important predictors of labor force participation in any given year. On the other hand, attitude variables do not explain the increase in women's labor force participation during the 1970's.
