Grandparents and parental labor supply during the COVID-19 pandemic
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
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
The effect of violent crime on female decision-making within the household: evidence from the Mexican war on drugs
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 17 - Trang 615-646 - 2018
Magda Tsaneva, Marc Rockmore, Zahra Albohmood
This paper uses the surge in drug-related violence in Mexico to study the effect of violent crime on married women’s decision-making. Using a fixed-effects regression model, we find that increased violence is associated with a reduction in women’s participation in household decision-making. Yet, the effect is small—at the average, it leads to women making 0.11 fewer decisions, a decrease of 1.2% r...... hiện toàn bộ

This paper examines the effect of excessive mortgage indebtedness on health among homeowners using nine waves of the Health and Retirement Study from 1992 to 2008. Health status is measured by subjective well-being, number of depressive symptoms, and incidence of hypertension. Using average annual state-level home prices as an instrument, we attempt to identify the causal effect in an panel IV fra...... hiện toàn bộ
Gender gap in the impact of social capital on household food security in Zimbabwe: does spatial proximity matter?
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 21 - Trang 245-267 - 2021
Terrence Kairiza, George Kembo, Vengesai Magadzire, Lloyd Chigusiwa
Despite the numerous strides that have been made towards ensuring food security since the launch of the United Nations Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), the gap between the rich and poor across and within countries is still worryingly too large. Around 57.7% of the Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) population is food insecure compared to 26.4% of the world population. It is therefore necessary to make c...... hiện toàn bộ
Who will change the “baby?” Examining the power of gender in an experimental setting
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 18 - Trang 823-852 - 2020
Leanne Roncolato, Alex Roomets
We conduct an experiment designed to test the impact of a gender-loaded frame on the distribution of labor between care and market work. In an unframed treatment, one activity is labeled a “Multiplication Activity” and a second activity is labeled a “Monitoring Activity”. In a framed treatment, these same activities are labeled as an “Employment Activity” and a “Care Activity”. A difference betwee...... hiện toàn bộ

This study examines the changes in women’s decision-making roles due to the foreign labor migration of men from Nepal. 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

Springer Science and Business Media LLC - - Trang 1-26 - 2023
Laurens Cherchye, Thomas Demuynck, Bram De Rock, Mariia Kovaleva, Geoffrey Minne, Maite De Sola Perea, Frederic Vermeulen
We identify the population shares of poor hand-to-mouth households, wealthy hand-to-mouth households and non hand-to-mouth households in Belgium. We apply the methodology proposed by Kaplan & Violante (2014) and Kaplan et al., (2014) to the Belgian component of the Household Finance and Consumption Survey. We find that the fraction of hand-to-mouth households in Belgium is substantial and predomin...... hiện toàn bộ
