Replication data for: Children and Their Parents' Labor Supply: Evidence from Exogenous Variation in Family Size
Listed in Harvard Dataverse
Research on the labor-supply consequences of childbearing is complicated by the endogeneity of fertility.
Description
This study uses parental preferences for a mixed sibling-sex composition to construct instrumental variables (IV) estimates of the effect of childbearing on labor supply. IV estimates for women are significant but smaller than ordinary least-squares estimates.
The IV are also smaller for more educated women and show no impact of family size on husbands' labor supply. A comparison of estimates using sibling-sex composition and twins instruments implies that the impact of a third child disappears when the child reaches age 13.
