Economics of Fertility, Educational Choice and Labor Force Behavior Working Draft, National Institute of Education Monograph, 1976 Cohort(s): Mature Women Publisher: National Institute of Education, U.S. Keyword(s): Children; Educational Attainment; Family Resources; Fertility; Marriage; Schooling; Simultaneity; Socioeconomic Status (SES); Wives Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. This monograph summarizes the findings of the investigation of the relationships among family size, educational choice, marital patterns, and labor force behavior of American women between the ages of 30 to 44 in l967. This study, which concentrates on the linkages between fertility and other aspects of household activity, seeks to integrate models of fertility and home and market activities into a comprehensive model of household behavior. To this end, we attempt to develop a household behavior model which reveals the simultaneous linkages among family size, education of parents and children, female earnings patterns, the timing of marriage, and the allocation of time for working, caring for children, and other activities. |
