Using structured, in-depth interviews with four men and five women, all with high level jobs, we examine multiple variables that may impact job levels. We find that a primary difference between men and women is the Second Shift with women responsible for a much greater share of the household and childcare roles than men. Ambition widens and deepens for mothers to incorporate family while ambition for the one father in the study remained more focused on career. 2016-05-05 English text Ohio Dominican University Honors Theses / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=oduhonors1462195964 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=oduhonors1462195964 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: some rights reserved.
