This article tests Randall Collin's 1975 theory that political-economic factors, rather than family/kinship factors, predict the degree of sexual stratification in a given society. A multivariate model is tested and findings contradict the theory.

Related Hypotheses Cite More By Author - Women's control of property (a proxy for their control of economic production) will be positively associated with indicators of high social status for women and negatively associated with indicators of low status (440).Hendrix, Lewellyn - Women’s status and mode of production: a cross-cultural test, 1988 - 2 Variables
This article presents a materialist approach to the study of women's status. The authors test a Marxist-feminist theory which situates women's status as the end effect in a causal chain that begins with the mode of production and is mediated by the extent to which women control production. Results point to separate, rather than confounding, effects of these two factors on the status of women.
