In the United States, the Great Recession was marked by severe negative shocks to
labor market conditions. In this study, we combine longitudinal data from the
Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study with U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics
data on local area unemployment rates to examine the relationship between adverse
labor market conditions and mothers' experiences of abusive behavior between 2001
and 2010. Unemployment and economic hardship at the household level were
positively related to abusive behavior. Further, rapid increases in the
unemployment rate increased men's controlling behavior toward romantic partners
even after we adjust for unemployment and economic distress at the household
level. We interpret these findings as demonstrating that the uncertainty and
anticipatory anxiety that go along with sudden macroeconomic downturns have
negative effects on relationship quality, above and beyond the effects of job
loss and material hardship.
