This research investigated maternal employment and education in relation to mothers' emotional well-being and the emotional well-being of their adolescents. In the study, 52 adolescents and their parents carried electronic pagers and responded to signals via self-report forms for I week At the end of the week the Beck Depression Inventory and Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale were administered along with other self-report measures. The results showed that mothers' global well-being was influenced by an interaction between education and employment. Additionally, mothers' education/employment match interacted with their affect to influence adolescents's global well-being (depression and self-esteem) as well as adolescents' day-to-day experiences (affect). These interactions were investigated further and the findings are discussed in relation to the emotional development of adolescents.
