dc.description.abstract | In this paper we estimate the causal effect of children on the labor supply of women usingpanel data on women from the 1979 National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (NLSY79). Weexamine the effect of children both prior to and after birth as well as how the effect of childrenvaries with the number of children. We also decompose the total effect of children into thedirect and indirect components and separately examine the dynamics of these components.Sequential participation decisions for four levels of labor market involvement and fertilitydecisions are jointly modeled. We allow decisions to be correlated in a general fashion bothacross time and across choices. The estimation is performed using Markov chain MonteCarlo methods. We find that children have a strong effect on a women's labor marketbehavior in both the pre- and post-birth period. We also find that both the direct and indirecteffects are large immediately after the birth of a child but that the indirect effect declinesquickly over time. The effects of children vary by education and race. | en |
