Thesis (Ph.D.)--Texas Tech University, 2004.

This research hypothesized that there were statistically significant relationships in expenditure patterns among teachers, administrators/managers and professionals who are grouped together in the manager/professional occupational category by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) while controlling for some socio-demographic factors and stages in consumer life cycle variables.

520 $a This research hypothesized that there were statistically significant relationships in expenditure patterns among teachers, administrators/managers and professionals who are grouped together in the manager/professional occupational category by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) while controlling for some socio-demographic factors and stages in consumer life cycle variables.
520 $a The sample size of 3,976 was drawn from the Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Expenditure Survey (CES) interview tapes for the years 1995 through 2001. It consisted of 611 teachers, 1353 administrators/managers, and 2012 professionals. Multivariate Tobit analysis was used to examine statistical relationships related to expenditures for each of the groups of interest. Fourteen consumption categories (food at home, food away from home, alcoholic beverages, housing, apparel and services, transportation, health care, entertainment, personal care, reading materials, education, miscellaneous expenditures, cash contributions, and personal insurance and pensions) were treated as dependent variables and regressed against total expenditure, life cycle variables, region, race/ethnicity, occupation, gender, and education.
520 $a The descriptive analysis of the expenditure patterns illustrated that differences existed among administrators/managers, teachers, and professionals with respect to their distributions of expenditures. The average total expenditures by teachers were lower by 16.5 percent and 15.3 percent than those of administrators/managers and professionals respectively. The total expenditure was a driving force in determining the level of expense for all expenditure categories investigated. Occupation was shown to have significant effects for most items also.
520 $a Various life cycle stages and other socio-demographic factors such as region of residence, race of the reference person, educational attainment, occupational group, and sex of the reference person were all found to be significant determinants of the pattern of expenditures within each occupational group. Statistically significant differences in spending patterns among teacher, professional, and administrator/manager consumer units were found for nine out of fourteen expenditure categories after controlling for socio-demographic factors. Implications for teachers, some government agencies, and business sectors on economic and public policies are included.
