Outcomes of equity/inequity among older spouses.
The extent to which perceptions of global and specific equity/inequity were associated with dissatisfaction, disagreement between spouses, partners' regard for one another, and gender-role attitudes was investigated for eighty-two couples over age sixty. The differential influence of equity/inequity for the well-being of women and men was studied.
