This research involves two specific projects designed to                investigate the impact of transfer programs and labor market                    opportunities on the behavior of low-income households.  The                    first project investigates the role of part-time work among                     female workers.  The second focuses on the effect of multiple                   transfer programs on household behavior, with a particular                      emphasis on the dynamic interaction between in-kind and cash                    programs.  Estimating strategies are designed to compare the time               patterns of multiple transfer use among different populations.                  Much of the estimation will focus on differences in the duration                of time spent on single versus multiple programs.                                       The interactive component includes teaching a graduate                  course on income distribution and weekly participation in three                 ongoing faculty/student seminars:  labor economics/public                       finance, an interdisciplinary seminar in industrial relations,                  and one involving labor market issues.                                                  This project furthers VPW program objectives which are (1)              to provide opportunities for women to advance their careers in                  engineering and in the disciplines of science supported by NSF                  and (2) to encourage women to pursue careers in science and                     engineering by providing greater visibility for women scientists                and engineers employed in industry, government, and academic                    institutions.  By encouraging the participation of women in                     science, it is a valuable investment in the Nation's future                     scientific vitality.
