Intergenerational Transfers and the Rate of Time Preference in a Dynamic Model of Schooling Decisions Presented: New Haven, CT, Yale University, Cowles Conference on the Econometrics of Strategy and Decision Making, May 2000 Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: Cowles Foundation for Research and Economics, Yale University Keyword(s): Armed Forces Qualifications Test (AFQT); Educational Attainment; Educational Returns; Intergenerational Patterns/Transmission; Schooling; Time Preference; Transfers, Family Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. The main objective of the present paper is to estimate a structural model of schooling decisions in which the separate effects of subjective discount rates, labor market ability and intergenerational transfers on schooling attainments can be identified and which can be used to evaluate the relative importance of discount rate heterogeneity and family background variables. The model, which is estimated in the present paper, is similar to the one discussed in Belzil and Hansen (2000 - Subective Discount Rate, Intergenerational Transfers and the Return of Schooling). |
