Labor Supply and Household Dynamics
利用收入动态面板研究数据，发现性别和婚姻状况导致的劳动力供给差异并非在结婚时突然出现，而是随时间逐渐形成，并提出了一个跨期集体模型来解释这一现象。
Using the Panel Study of Income Dynamics, we provide evidence that to understand household decisions and evaluate policies designed to affect individual welfare, it is important to add an intertemporal dimension to the by-now standard static collective models of the household. Specifically, we document that the observed differences in labor supply by gender and marital status do not arise suddenly at the time of marriage, but rather emerge gradually over time. We then propose an intertemporal collective model that has the potential of explaining the observed patterns.
