利用1917-1919年美国生活成本调查数据,研究丈夫失业时妻子如何调整家务劳动和市场劳动时间,发现妻子增加市场劳动(附加工人效应)的幅度大于调整家务劳动的幅度。

Abstract

A large literature examines men's unemployment and their wives' labor-market participation. In response to her husband's unemployment, a woman may adjust her labor supplied to household production as well as to the market. This article tests for this effect and measures its impact using the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Cost of Living survey of 1917–1919. Households altered both household-production decisions and the wife's labor supplied to the market in response to the husband's unemployment. But the household-production-response effect was smaller than the added-worker effect, in terms of women's labor hours and household consumption.
