Long-Term Consequences for Women of Having a Child During the Teen Years Presented: Washington, DC, Population Association of America Meetings, 1991 Cohort(s): Young Women Publisher: Population Association of America Keyword(s): Age at First Birth; Age at First Marriage; Childbearing; Educational Attainment; First Birth; Marriage; Simultaneity; Teenagers Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. This paper focuses on the simultaneous effects of age at first birth, age at first marriage, and highest grade in school among women age 27. The work builds on earlier analyses in three ways. Individual level background characteristics are augmented with contextual variables such as labor market conditions and the incidence of female-headed households. In addition, an estimated strategy is employed that allows us to estimate the simultaneous effects of age at first birth, age at first marriage, and educational attainment, and to account for censoring of age at first birth and first marriage. |
