To Grandmother's House We Go: Informal Childcare and Female Labor Mobility

open access: yesInternational Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We document how childcare costs and the location of extended family influence the labor supply and mobility of US women. Women return to their home locations immediately before fertility events, suggesting that informal childcare needs may motivate home migration. Women who live near their parents have lower child earnings penalties.

Goodness‐of‐Fit Tests for Positive Quadrant Dependence

open access: yesInternational Statistical Review, EarlyView.
Summary When two random variables are positive quadrant dependent (PQD), they are more likely to assume small (or large) values simultaneously compared with when the random variables are independent. This dependence structure is of interest in many areas, including finance, actuarial science and engineering.

A note on generalised information criteria for structured sparse models

open access: yesInternational Statistical Review, EarlyView.
Summary We propose a generalised information criteria ( gic) that accounts for sparsity pattern in the model. We obtain both asymptotic and nonasymptotic results for model selection. Moreover, we show that the gic is useful for selecting the regularisation parameter in regularised m$$ m $$ estimation in high‐dimensional scenarios.
