Grandmothers' Labor Supply [PDF]
The labor supply effects of becoming a grandmother are not well established in the empirical literature. We estimate the effect of becoming a grandmother on the labor supply decision of older workers. Under the assumption that grandmothers cannot predict the exact date of conception of their grandchild, we identify the effect of the first grandchild on

Grandchildren and Their Grandparents' Labor Supply [PDF]
We study how becoming a grandparent affects grandparents’ labor supply. In a simple model of the allocation of time in which seniors care about their offspring’s welfare and also value time spent with family children, the sign of the effect is ambiguous.

Loss Aversion and Labor Supply [PDF]
In many occupations workers labor supply choices are constrained by institutional rulesregulating labor time and effort provision. This renders explicit tests of the neoclassical theoryof labor supply difficult. Here we present evidence from studies examining labor supplyresponses in neoclassical environments in which workers are free to choose when

Aggregation and Labor Supply Elasticities [PDF]
The aggregate Frisch elasticity of labor supply has played a key role in business cycle analysis. This paper develops a statistical aggregation procedure which allows for worker heterogeneity in observables and unobservables and is applicable to an individual labor supply function with non-employment as a possible outcome.

Hours Restrictions and Labor Supply [PDF]
The authors estimate a labor-supply model that permits hours restrictions of a simple but general form. Each individual chooses from among a finite set of jobs drawn at random f rom a market distribution, each offering a fixed quantity of hours. The polar cases of no constraints on hours worked and exogenous hours ar e nested within the general case ...

Ssi, Labor Supply, and Migration [PDF]
The Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program in the United States creates incentives for potential aged recipients to reduce labor supply prior to becoming eligible, and our past research finds that older men likely to be eligible for SSI at age 65 reduce their labor supply in the years immediately before the age of eligibility.

There is substantial variation in working time even within employer-employee matches, and yet estimates of the Frisch elasticity of labor supply can be near zero. This paper proposes a tractable theory of earnings and working time to interpret these observations.
