Why Do African Households Give Hospitality to Relatives?
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 2 - Trang 179-202 - 2004
Benoît Rapoport
This empirical article describes a widespread African phenomenon—hospitality given to relatives—and explains why African households often provide long-term hospitality. A budget and consumption survey carried out in Gabon in 1994 is used to compare the characteristics of households that provide hospitality and the characteristics of guests and the members of nuclear households. A two-step procedur...... hiện toàn bộ

The data are for males and females age 18 to 55, who married only once, in the 2010–2014 American Community Surveys. Among immigrants, better job opportunities, measured by educational attainment, English profici...... hiện toàn bộ

Springer Science and Business Media LLC - - Trang 1-30 - 2023
Sarah Jiyoon Kwon
This study examines whether and to what extent the availability of grandparents in the home plays a buffering role in the labor supply of parents of children aged 0–5 during the COVID-19 pandemic. The role of grandparents as a childcare resource and its association with parents’ labor supply have received increasing attention in the literature. Limited childcare options during the pandemic undersc...... hiện toàn bộ
Marriage as a commitment device
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 10 - Trang 193-213 - 2012
Alessandro Cigno
Non-cooperative couples are inefficient. Cooperation raises the utility of both parents, and of each child, but does not guarantee efficiency. In the presence of credit rationing, a cooperative equilibrium may not exist outside marriage, because the main earner cannot credibly promise to compensate the main childcarer at some future date, and may not be able or willing to do so at front. By allowi...... hiện toàn bộ
Infant feeding and asthma: is breast milk best?
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 9 - Trang 487-504 - 2010
Tiffany Green
Asthma is the most commonly occurring chronic childhood disease in the United States and is the leading cause of hospitalization and missed school days. In this article, I examine whether differences in asthma diagnosis can be attributed to differences in breastfeeding incidence and duration. Using data from the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Survey, I examine whether unobserved heterogeneit...... hiện toàn bộ
Occupational segregation by sexual orientation in the U.S.: exploring its economic effects on same-sex couples
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 17 - Trang 439-467 - 2018
Coral del Río, Olga Alonso-Villar
This paper examines the importance of the occupational sorting of individuals in same-sex couples in explaining the economic position of lesbian women and gay men beyond controlling for occupation in the estimation of their respective wage gaps, as usually done in the literature. The analysis reveals that the distribution of partnered gay men across occupations brings them a monetary gain, with re...... hiện toàn bộ

Vivekananda Das
This paper uses data from the Household Pulse Survey to examine whether and for how long the eligibility to receive state Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) benefits reduced self-reported household food insufficiency among lower-income households with dependent children during the COVID-19 pandemic. The results of models estimated using difference-in-differences (DD) and difference-in-difference-in-d...... hiện toàn bộ
LEGISLATING LOVE: The Effect of Child Support and Welfare Policies on Father–child Contact
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 2 Số 3 - Trang 255-274 - 2004
Elizabeth Peters, H., Argys, Laura M., Howard, Heather Wynder , Butler, J. S.
Reducing non-marital childbearing and making nonresidential fathers take greater responsibility for their children were identified as goals of numerous policy changes since the 1980s. Child-support award rates for children born to unmarried parents have been quite low historically, leading lawmakers to focus on increasing both award and payment rates for this group. Nonmarital fathers are also muc...... hiện toàn bộ
Domestic violence, decision-making power, and female employment in Colombia
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 19 - Trang 233-254 - 2020
Johanna Fajardo-Gonzalez
Using data from the Colombian Demographic and Health Survey, I document a positive association between intimate partner violence against women and the likelihood of women’s employment. This finding persists when I exploit the husband’s own childhood experience of abuse as a source of plausibly exogenous variation for the incidence of domestic violence. To explore potential mechanisms underlying th...... hiện toàn bộ
