Couple's labor supply, taxes, and the division of housework in a gender-neutral lab (2016)

Schröder, Melanie & Norma Burow (2016): Couple's labor supply, taxes, and the division of housework in a gender-neutral lab. (DIW-Diskussionspapiere 1593), Berlin, 30 S.
Abstract
"We use a lab-in-the-field experiment to investigate intra-couple labor supply decisions and the division of housework under individual and joint income taxation systems. In order to eliminate problems of endogenous intra-couple time use decisions, we exogenously varied not only the taxation system but also the intra-couple roles of primary and secondary earners. Using work effort as a proxy for labor supply, 62 established couples, both cohabiting and married (124 participants), performed real effort tasks under a piece rate payment system within a given time. Prior to this paid task, couples had to decide upon the allocation of an unpaid task serving as our proxy for housework. In our gender neutral lab, we find tax-effects only on men's labor supply but not on women's and no gender differences in the allocation of housework. Instead, the allocation of housework follows a purely economic rationale with the majority of secondary earners taking responsibility. This is even confirmed by a shift to a more egalitarian allocation when individual taxation is applied. However, one result replicates real world findings with married male participants providing more labor supply than cohabiting men and married women less than cohabiting women. This result hinges on the stability of specialization in married couples, which seems to overcome the gender neutral lab." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

Abstract
"We examine the extent to which the gender wage gap stems from dual-earner couples jointly choosing where to live. If couples locate in places better suited for the man's employment than for the woman's, the resulting mismatch of women to employers will depress women's wages. Examining data from Denmark, our analyses indicate that (1) Danish couples choose locations with higher expected wages for the man than for the woman, (2) the better matching of men in couples to local employers could account for up to 36 percent of the gender wage gap, and (3) the greatest asymmetry in the apparent importance of the man's versus the woman's potential earnings occurred among couples with young children and where the male partner accounted for a larger share of household income before the potential move."

Abstract
"Eine neue Studie gibt Rückenwind für das Vorhaben der Bundesregierung, mehr Lohngerechtigkeit zu schaffen. Demnach fordern über 90 Prozent der Frauen, gleichen Lohn für gleiche oder gleichwertige Arbeit. Für die repräsentative Studie im Auftrag des Bundesfamilienministeriums wurden mehr als 3000 Interviews mit Männern und Frauen geführt. Ziel war es, die Einstellung der deutschen Bevölkerung zu Einkommensgerechtigkeit zu untersuchen.
Frauen zwischen 30 und 50 Jahren haben heute mehr Möglichkeiten als frühere Generationen. Sie wollen erwerbstätig sein, weil dadurch ihr Selbstwertgefühl und ihre wirtschaftlich Unabhängigkeit gestärkt werden. Ihre berufliche Qualifikation ist heute genauso gut wie die der Männer. Dennoch sind nach wie vor tradierte Rollenbilder, Verhaltensmuster und Fehlanreize wirksam, welche die bestehende Entgeltungleichheit befördern. So arbeiten Frauen viel häufiger in Teilzeit: Trotz guter Qualifikation sind nur 39 Prozent der Frauen im Alter von 30 bis 50 Jahren Vollzeit erwerbstätig - aber 88 Prozent der Männer. Gerade in der Mitte des Lebens werden weichenstellende Entscheidungen getroffen, die viele Frauen zunehmend vom Einkommen ihres Partners oder staatlichen Transferleistungen abhängig machen. Die praktische Lebenswirklichkeit der Frauen bleibt so weit hinter ihren Potenzialen und Wünschen zurück. Nur 14 Prozent der Frauen leben in einer gleichgestellten Partnerschaft, in der sich beide die Aufgaben für Haushalt und Kinder teilen und das Haushaltseinkommen erwirtschaften. Für den Zusammenhalt der Gesellschaft ist Gleichberechtigung nach Auffassung von 83 Prozent der Frauen ein notwendiges Basiselement - nur 12 Prozent sind der Ansicht, dass Gleichstellung zwischen Frauen und Männern bereits voll und ganz realisiert ist. Über 90 Prozent der Frauen fordern gleichen Lohn für gleiche oder gleichwertige Arbeit." (Autorenreferat, IAB-Doku) -

Abstract
"The world is facing an acute misuse of talent by not acting faster to tackle gender inequality, which could put economic growth at risk and deprive economies of the opportunity to develop, according to the World Economic Forum's Global Gender Gap Report 2016, which is published today.
The report is an annual benchmarking exercise that measures progress towards parity between men and women in four areas: Educational Attainment, Health and Survival, Economic Opportunity and Political Empowerment. In this latest edition, the report finds that progress towards parity in the key economic pillar has slowed dramatically with the gap - which stands at 59% - now larger than at any point since 2008.
Behind this decline are a number of factors. One is salary, with women around the world on average earning just over half of what men earn despite, on average, working longer hours taking paid and unpaid work into account. Another persistent challenge is stagnant labour-force participation, with the global average for women standing at 54%, compared with 81% for men. The number of women in senior positions also remains stubbornly low, with only four countries in the world having equal numbers of male and female legislators, senior officials and managers, despite the fact that 95 countries now have as many - if not more - women educated at university level."

Abstract
"We develop a theory of fertility, distinguishing its intensive margin from its extensive margin. The deep parameters are identified using facts from the 1990 US Census: (i) fertility of mothers decreases with education; (ii) childlessness exhibits a U-shaped relationship with education; (iii) the relationship between marriage rates and education is hump-shaped for women and increasing for men. We estimate that 2.5 percent of women were childless because of poverty and 8.1 percent because of high opportunity cost of childrearing. Over time, historical trends in total factor productivity and in education led to a U-shaped response in childlessness rates while fertility of mothers decreased."

Abstract
"This paper theorizes and provides evidence for the segregation of men into clustered occupations and women into dispersed occupations in advance of marriage and in anticipation of future colocation problems. Using the Decennial Census, and controlling for occupational characteristics, I find evidence of this general pattern of segregation, and also find that the minority of the highly educated men and women who depart from this equilibrium experience delayed marriage, higher divorce, and lower earnings. Results are consistent with the theory that marriage and mobility expectations foment a self-fulfilling pattern of occupational segregation with individual departures deterred by earnings and marriage penalties."

Can you stay home today? Parents' occupations, relative resources and division of care leave for sick children (2015)

Abstract
"This is one of only a few studies on the division of care leave for sick children (temporary parental leave) between parents in Sweden and is the first to examine the importance of differences in parents' work characteristics. The study uses register data for parents with children born between 1999 and 2002 to analyse two aspects of parents' employment that may be of importance for the division of care leave: their relative resources, in this case wages, and different occupations. First, the results show that a father's share of care leave increases as the mother's relative wage decreases. This suggests that decisions about care leave are influenced by bargaining power gained through differences in resources. Second, the resources of couples where both partners work in the same occupation are more equal, and such couples also divide care leave more equally than couples with different occupations. However, the fact that same-occupation couples tend to share care leave more equally does not seem to be explained by similarities in the partners' work characteristics, and may instead be due to unmeasured, stable characteristics. Greater income and career possibilities for the women are proposed as a possible explanation of the division of care leave for same-occupation couples." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

Abstract
"Der Beitrag untersucht für Zweiverdiener-Paare in Deutschland, welche Rolle die Erwerbstätigkeit in typischen 'Frauenberufen' und 'Männerberufen' für die Hausarbeitsteilung spielt. Für die Erklärung eines solchen Zusammenhangs kontrastieren wir Argumente aus ressourcenbasierten Ansätzen und der Geschlechterrollensozialisation mit Prozessen im Rahmen von 'Doing Gender' und der Kompensationshypothese. Die Analysen mit Daten des Sozio-oekonomischen Panels (1993 - 2011) zeigen, dass Frauen, die eine geschlechts-untypische Berufstätigkeit ausüben, eine solche Abweichung von traditionellen Geschlechterrollen offenbar durch eine verstärkte Übernahme 'weiblich konnotierter' Haushaltstätigkeiten (wie Waschen, Kochen, Putzen) kompensieren. Männer kompensieren eine entsprechende Abweichung demgegenüber eher durch eine verstärkte Übernahme 'männlich konnotierter' Aufgaben im Haushalt (wie Reparaturarbeiten). Letztgenannte Hausarbeiten werden generell dann besonders selten ausgeübt, wenn einer der Partner in einem geschlechtlich ausbalancierten Beruf tätig ist. Abweichungen von traditionellen Geschlechternormen auf dem Arbeitsmarkt scheinen sich daher sowohl für Frauen als auch für Männer auszuwirken und werden vor allem anhand von Hausarbeiten ausgeglichen, die traditionell in ihren jeweiligen Aufgabenbereich fallen."

Abstract
"Americans work more than Europeans. Using micro-data from the United States and 17 European countries, we document that women are typically the largest contributors to the cross-country differences in work hours. We also show that there is a negative relation between taxes and annual hours worked, driven by men, and a positive relation between divorce rates and annual hours worked, driven by women. In a calibrated life-cycle model with heterogeneous agents, marriage and divorce, we find that the divorce and tax mechanisms together can explain 45% of the variation in labor supply between the United States and the European countries."

Abstract
"Wenn Paare in Deutschland Eltern werden, verändern sie häufig ihre Aufteilung von bezahlter und unbezahlter Arbeit in Richtung eines geschlechtsspezifischen Arrangements. Auf Basis von qualitativen, ereigniszentrierten Längsschnittdaten des Projektes 'Innerfamiliale Arbeitsteilung als Prozess' vergleicht der vorliegende Artikel theoretische Annahmen zu Veränderungen der Arbeitsteilung in Paarbeziehungen mit den Erklärungen, die hochgebildete Paare selbst geben. Unsere qualitative Analyse zeigt, dass sowohl ökonomische als auch Gender-Theorien relativ erfolgreich erklären, warum Paare sich für eine eher traditionelle Spezialisierung der Arbeiten entscheiden, wenn sie den Übergang zur Erstelternschaft erleben. Diese Theorien sind hingegen weniger erfolgreich darin, zu erklären, warum Paare egalitäre Arrangements beibehalten oder wählen. Anhand der qualitativen Interviews wird ersichtlich, dass Erklärungsmuster, die im Bereich der unbezahlten Arbeit zwischen Kinderbetreuung und Hausarbeit unterscheiden, besser die Realität der Paare erfassen. Darüber hinaus ist die von den Theorien vorgeschlagene kausale Reihenfolge der Entscheidungen eine andere als die der Paare: im Übergang zur Elternschaft entscheiden werdende Eltern zunächst über die Kinderbetreuung und dann über Erwerbstätigkeit und Hausarbeit."

Abstract
"Um die Entscheidung über den Erwerbsumfang im Partnerschaftskontext anhand zweier konkurrierender mikroökonomischer Theorien zu untersuchen, muss die derzeitige Erwerbskonstellation berücksichtigt werden. Denn je nach theoretischem Ansatz kann sie einerseits die aktuelle Spezialisierungslogik vorgeben, die fortgeschrieben werden soll (Neue Haushaltsökonomie), oder andererseits die paarinternen Machtverhältnisse bestimmen, die möglichst zugunsten der eigenen Position verändert werden sollen (Verhandlungstheorie). Im vorliegenden Beitrag wird die Frage nach dem Einfluss der bisherigen Erwerbskonstellation auf die Entscheidung für zukünftige Erwerbskonstellationen untersucht. Dazu wird auf ein Faktorielles Survey- Design im Panel 'Arbeitsmarkt und soziale Sicherung' (PASS) zur Erfassung der Stellenannahmebereitschaft zurückgegriffen. Es zeigt sich, dass Personen in Paarhaushalten vor allem an einem Ausgleich der Machtstruktur interessiert sind und sich nicht für eine Fortschreibung bestehender Spezialisierungen entscheiden."

Abstract
"Economic theory suggests that when a primary earner within a couple loses their job, one potential response is for the secondary earner to seek additional paid work to bolster their household finances. The empirical quantitative evidence regarding any such 'added worker effect' is mixed, and, to investigate why this might be, the article explores processes behind couples' responses to job loss. Drawing on in-depth qualitative interviews conducted with a purposive sample selected from the Understanding Society Innovation Panel, the analysis examines: (a) anticipation surrounding job loss and job search responses; (b) the extent to which couples adopt long- or short-term labour market perspectives; and (c) whether couples seek to preserve their established division of paid and unpaid labour or re-configure their joint labour supply. Findings indicate that the use of additional spousal labour is only one response among many alternatives and it is typically invoked in cases of serious financial hardship."

Abstract
"In this paper, I experimentally investigate couples' specialization decisions and examine the gender-specific patterns in labor division arising within heterosexual couples. Eighty participants - 20 real couples and 20 pairs of strangers - play a two-stage game, paired up either with their partner or a stranger of the opposite sex. In the first stage, participants make a joint decision on how to play the game: They can both complete a performance-based paid task (task A) or have one of the players perform an unpaid task (task B), thereby tripling the pay-rate for the partner playing task A. After completing their tasks, participants are informed about their pay-offs in private and then asked to make an individual decision about what proportion of their income to pay into a common pool, where it is increased by 20 % and distributed equally between the two players. I find that women are significantly more likely to give up their income autonomy and perform the unpaid task when playing with their partner rather than with an unfamiliar man. Men's behavior is not affected by familiarity with their female partner." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku, © Springer-Verlag) ((en))

"We use data from the 2000 decennial U.S. Census to compare differences in earnings, hours worked, and labor-force participation between members of different household types, including same-sex couples, different-sex couples, and roommates. Both same-sex and different-sex couples exhibit some degree of household specialization, whereas roommates show little or no degree of specialization. Of all household types, married couples exhibit by far the highest degree of specialization with respect to labor-market outcomes. With respect to differences in earnings and hours, gay male couples are more similar to married couples than lesbian or unmarried heterosexual couples are to married couples."

Abstract
"Studies of the joint time-use decisions of spouses have relied on joint estimation of time-use equations, sometimes assuming correlated errors across spouses' equations and sometimes directly examining the effects of one spouse's time use on another's, relying on panel data or instrumental variables techniques to account for endogeneity. However, panel data often are not available and available instruments often are not satisfactory, making examination of the direct relationship between spouses' time use difficult. Spatial econometric techniques applied to cross-sectional data do not require instrumental variables. This study estimates both a Spatial Autoregressive (SAR) Model and a Spatial Durbin Error Model (SDEM) to examine the labor hours of husbands and wives in dual-earner couples using the 2012 Annual Social and Economic Supplement to the Current Population Survey (ASEC). In these models, each spouse is treated as a direct 'neighbor' of the other in a spatial weight matrix and non-spouses are treated as nonneighbors. Estimates of both the own- and cross-wage effects on labor hours and an estimate of the direct relationship between spouses' labor hours are obtained." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

Abstract
"While many women receive equal education, such equality is nowhere in sight when it comes to women's and men's career success: men still earn significantly more than women and are more likely to be promoted. In this book, the authors offer a state of the art review of applied social-psychological research on gender at work, shedding light on all the different ways that work-related perceptions, attributions, outcomes, and the like differ for women and men. Focusing on domains (e.g., engineering) and positions (e.g., leadership) that are marked by women's underrepresentation, the first part of the book looks at gender at work in terms of stereotypes, attitudes, and social roles, including parenthood, while the second part takes a social identity and communication perspective, exploring the situations in which men and women interact at work. Many chapters focus on applied questions, such as career choice, effects of role models, and sexual harassment at work. Theories and findings are applied to these topics, with conclusions and recommendations drawn throughout the book." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

"This paper aims to verify results of the innovative study on gender identity for the USA by Bertrand et al. (2015) for Germany. They found that women who would earn more than their husbands distort their labor market outcome in order not to violate traditional gender identity norms. Using data from the German Socio-economic Panel Study (SOEP) we also find that the distribution of the share of income earned by the wife exhibits a sharp drop to the right of the half, where the wife's income exceeds the husband's income. The results of the fixed effects regression confirm that gender identity has an impact on the labor supply of full time working women, but only in Western Germany. We also show that gender identity affects the supply of housework but in contrast to the US where women increase their contribution to non-market work when they actually have a higher income than their husbands, we find for Germany that women only barely reduce their weekly hours of non-market work once their income exceeds that of their husbands."
