Women’s participation in decision-making and its implications for human capital investment
研究了埃塞俄比亚农村家庭中女性参与家庭决策对饮食多样性和人力资本投资的影响,发现女性参与决策与家庭饮食多样性和人力资本投资正相关。
Abstract We evaluate the implications of women’s participation in domestic decision-making on diets and investments in human resources in Ethiopian rural households. We create a metric to capture intra-household decision-making, which we use to estimate a positive association between women’s participation in decision-making and household-level dietary diversity. Moreover, we find that an increase in women’s participation in intra-household decision-making is associated with higher financial investments in human resources.
