TLDR
In this article, the educational levels of spouses (N = 2,923) are analyzed for 1954, 1971, and 1977. And the authors show that heterogamy cannot be fully accounted for as "forced" by different educational structures.
Abstract
In "Beroepsmobiliteit tussen generaties in Nederland in 1954 en 1977" ([Professional Mobility between the Generations of 1954 and 1977 in the Netherlands], see abstract in this section), H. Ganzeboom & P. de Graaf have shown that occupational mobility was considerably larger in 1977 than in 1954. To examine the validity of this conclusion for the openness of Dutch society on the whole, another indicator, selective mating, is examined. Using Ganzeboom's & de Graaf's questionnaire data, the educational levels of spouses (N = 2,923) are analyzed for 1954, 1971, & 1977. If partners with the same or different levels of education are called homogamous & heterogamous, respectively, a loglinear analysis shows that: (1) heterogamy cannot be fully accounted for as "forced" by different educational structures; (2) structural & actual heterogamy were more pronounced in 1954 than in 1977; & (3) there was still some dependence between spouses' educational levels after 1971. 3 Tables, 21 References.

Family migration and the labour-force participation of married women in the Netherlands, 1977-1996.

TL;DR: Analysis of data from the Dutch Labour-Force Surveys for the years 1977 and 1995-96 showed that married women who migrated in the year before the interview to another province had lesser participation in paid employment than other married women and the intensity of the migration effect differs among different groups of married women.

The analysis of religious assortative marriage : an application of design techniques for categorical models

TL;DR: Lammers and Wout Ultee as discussed by the authors used loglinear modelling techniques similar to those used in mobility analysis, in order to control for the sizes of the denominations and the factor spacial dispersion by repeating the analysis for provinces in the years 1938,1963 and 1983.

Log-Linear Models

TL;DR: Discusses the innovative log-linear model of statistical analysis, which makes no distinction between independent and dependent variables, but is used to examine relationships among categoric variables by analyzing expected cell frequencies.
