Family Labor Supply, Non-Market Work, and Fertility Presented: Denver, CO, Econometric Society, 1980 Cohort(s): Mature Women, Young Women Publisher: Econometric Society Keyword(s): Divorce; Employment; Fertility; Husbands; Marital Dissolution; Marital Status; Non-Market Work; Widows; Wives Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. This study investigates determinants of labor supply for husbands and wives, and hours of non-market work and fertility for wives. In addition, labor supply, hours of non-market work, and fertility are predicted for widowed, divorced, and separated women. The data are the NLS of Young Women for 1972 when the women were ages 18 to 28 and the NLS of Mature Women for 1967 (ages 30 to 44). Labor supply and fertility elasticities are shown to vary by age, marital status, and race for women, while labor supply elasticity is found to differ by race for husbands. |
