Economic Shocks and Household Decisions Ph.D. Dissertation, Department of Economics, University of California, Santa Barbara, 2014 Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: ProQuest Dissertations & Theses (PQDT) Keyword(s): Divorce; Gender Differences; Husbands; Income Dynamics/Shocks; Unemployment; Wives Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. In the first chapter, I explore the effects of unpredicted changes in permanent income of each spouse on the probability of divorce for the couple. I find that if the husband experiences a negative income shock, the probability of divorce increases. If the wife experiences a negative income shock, this effect on divorce is only true if she had a switch into unemployment. |
