MALE AND FEMALE MARRIAGE RETURNS TO SCHOOLING
通过集体婚姻匹配模型,量化了教育回报中通过婚姻实现的部分,发现丹麦男女约一半的教育回报来自改善的婚姻结果。
A collective marriage matching model is estimated and calibrated to quantify the share of returns to schooling that is realized through marriage. The predictions of the model are matched with detailed Danish household data on the relationship between schooling and wage rates, the division of time and goods within the household, and the extent to which men and women sort positively on several traits in marriage. Counterfactual analysis conducted with the model suggests that Danish men and women are earning on the order of half of their returns to schooling through improved marital outcomes.
