OBJECTIVES:This study describes the correlates of labor force participation among Japanese men and women aged 60-85 and examines differences by gender and employment status. METHODS:Using four waves of data collected from a national sample of older Japanese between 1990 and 1999, we estimate multinomial logistic regression models for three measures of labor force participation (current labor force status, labor force exit, and labor force re-entry) as a function of individual and family characteristics measured 3 years earlier. RESULTS:Labor force participation is significantly associated with socioeconomic status, longest occupation, and family structure. The strength and nature of these relationships differ markedly for men and women and for wage employment and self-employment. DISCUSSION:The emphasis on life course experiences and work-family interdependence characterizing recent research on retirement in the United States is clearly relevant in Japan as well. To better understand later-life labor force participation in Japan, subsequent research should incorporate more direct measures of life course experiences and family relationships and attempt to make explicit cross-national comparisons of these relationships.

目的:本研究描述了60-85岁日本男性和女性劳动力参与的相关性,并研究了性别和就业状况之间的差异。
方法:使用1990年至1999年从日本老年人的国家样本中收集的四波数据,我们估算了劳动力参与的三种测度(当前劳动力状况,劳动力退出和劳动力再进入)的多项式Lo​​gistic回归模型。根据3年前测得的个人和家庭特征而定。
结果:劳动力的参与与社会经济地位,最长的职业和家庭结构显着相关。这些关系的强度和性质对于男人和妇女以及有薪工作和自谋职业有明显的不同。
讨论:在美国,对退休研究的最新研究对生活过程经验和工作家庭相互依存关系的重视在日本也很明显。为了更好地了解日本的后代劳动力参与,随后的研究应结合生活过程经验和家庭关系的更直接方法,并试图对这些关系进行明确的跨国比较。
