Abstract
Jacquelyn James earned her doctorate in psychology from Boston University, Boston, in 1988. While working for it she received a National Institute of Mental Health Family Traineeship. Upon receipt of the Ph.D. she was awarded the Dissertation Scholarship Award from the Boston University Graduate School and the Jeanne Humphrey Block Dissertation Award from The Henry A. Murray Research Center, Cambridge, Massachusetts, for her dissertation “Women’s Employment.” The Murray Center also immediately offered her a position as research associate, which she continues to hold. She wrote a chapter, “Women’s Employment Patterns, Occupational Attitudes and Midlife Weil-Being,” for The Meaning and Experience of Work in Women’s Lives, edited by N. Chester, which was published in 1990 by Lawrence Erlbaum.
