This paper offers a synthesis of agricultural household modeling, its evolution and uses; presents a general yet simple agricultural household model, estimated with Mexican village data and programmed using General Algebraic Modeling System software; and uses this model to explore household-level impacts of agricultural policy changes on production and incomes under alternative rural-market scenar...... hiện toàn bộ
Effects of family planning and health services on women’s welfare: evidence on dowries and intra-household bargaining in Bangladesh
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 9 - Trang 327-348 - 2010
This paper demonstrates how the availability of family planning and maternal and child health services alters the structure of intra-household bargaining. The overall welfare gains from such programs are likely to be large, but when women obtain access to services only through marriage, some of these gains may be partially offset by changes in their bargaining power and in the dowries that they pa...... hiện toàn bộ
The effect of breastfeeding on young adult wages: new evidence from the add health
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 15 - Trang 25-51 - 2016
A growing literature in economics has examined the effect of early childhood health investments on adult human capital formation and labor market outcomes. This study is the first to examine the effect of having been breastfed as an infant on young adult earnings. Using data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health (Add Health), ordinary least squares estimates suggest that breast...... hiện toàn bộ
Child-Care Choices by Working Mothers: The Case of Italy
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 3 - Trang 453-477 - 2005
In spite of relatively generous public subsidies and a reputation for high quality, only a very limited proportion of Italian families use public child-care and a large proportion use informal care. In this paper, we attempt to explore the determinants of the use of child-care among dual workers families. Given the limitations of data available we match two different data sets: the Bank of Italy (...... hiện toàn bộ
A household production model of demand for childcare and meals: theory and evidence from the Philippines
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 6 - Trang 47-64 - 2008
Becker/Mincer theory of home production was the first to systematically incorporate time in economic models, and the theory generated much empirical research in a wide variety of areas. However, the direct applications of Becker/Mincer home production theory in empirical research are scarce because of the innate immeasurability of commodities. In this paper, I recover unobservable commodities from...... hiện toàn bộ
Marriage as a commitment device
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 10 - Trang 193-213 - 2012
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

Using a mixed-method strategy, based on qualitative analysis from fieldwork in four districts of Nepal and quantitative analysis from Nepal Demographic and Health Survey 2011, the study finds that women who take on the role of household heads make more decisions, while those livin...... hiện toàn bộ

How Welfare Reform Can Affect Marriage:Evidence from an Experimental Study in Minnesota
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 2 - Trang 275-301 - 2004
A stated goal of the welfare legislation of 1996 was to develop policies to encourage “the formation and maintenance of two-parent families,” yet states were given little guidance about how to do this. Experimental evidence from the Minnesota Family Investment Program (MFIP), a program that tested the effects of an enhanced earnings disregard designed to encourage work and reduce poverty, shows th...... hiện toàn bộ
