LONG‐TERM CARE AND FAMILY BARGAINING*
构建了一个家庭如何决定由谁照顾年迈父母的结构模型，利用全国长期护理调查数据估计模型参数，并模拟不同家庭谈判规则对个人效用的影响。
We present a structural model of how families decide who should care for elderly parents. We use data from the National Long‐Term Care Survey to estimate and test the parameters of the model. Then we use the parameter estimates to simulate the effects of the existing long‐term trends in terms of the common but untested explanations for them. Finally, we simulate the effects of alternative family bargaining rules on individual utility to measure the sensitivity of our results to the family decision‐making assumptions we make.
