The Effect of Children and Employment on the Mental Health of Married Men and Women
Abstract
Gove has proposed that sex differences in psychiatric illness among the married might best be accounted for in terms of differences in the typical roles occupied by married men and married women. The effects of employment, number of children and age of youngest child on the feeling that one (a) confronts incessant demands from others, (b) desires to be alone, (c) feels lonely, and (d) manifests psychiatric symptoms support his sex role explanation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
