Female Participation and Labor Market Attachment in Rural Canada
利用加拿大面板数据估计了一个考虑未观测异质性和状态依赖的动态参与模型，探究农村与城市女性劳动参与率差异的原因。结果发现，总体差异主要由社会经济特征差异导致，但低收入农村女性的参与率因当地劳动力市场运作而降低。
Abstract This article explores the reasons for differences in female rural‐urban participation rates by estimating a dynamic model of participation allowing for unobserved heterogeneity and state dependence using Canadian panel data. The results suggest that overall observed differences in rural‐urban participation rates are primarily due to differences in observed socioeconomic characteristics. However, for women resident in low‐income households, there is evidence that the operation of rural labor markets effectively lowers their participation rates.
