Abstract

La présente étude repose sur l'appariement de données fiscales concernant les filles, leurs parents, leur partenaire et les parents de leur partenaire pour examiner les interactions entre la mobilité intergénérationnelle du revenu et l'appariement conjugal des jeunes couples au Canada. Nous montrons comment l'appariement assortatif contribue à la persistance intergénérationnelle du revenu du ménage. La force de l'association entre le revenu du beau-fils et celui des parents de la femme signifie que le lien intergénérationnel est plus puissant pour les revenus du ménage que pour le revenu personnel des filles uniquement. Il en est de même si l'on examine la situation du point de vue opposé, de sorte que les gains des filles et de leur partenaire sont reliés au revenu des parents de ce dernier. Ces résultats indiquent que l'appariement assortatif intensifie la persistance intergénérationnelle du revenu au niveau individuel. Dans la deuxième partie du document, nous considérons l'appariement assortatif selon le revenu parental. Nous constatons que le revenu des parents de la fille a une élasticité de près de 0,2 par rapport au revenu des parents de son partenaire. Cette association est à peu près du même ordre de grandeur que le lien intergénérationnel entre les revenus des parents et des enfants. Nous étudions les variations de la corrélation entre les revenus parentaux en fonction de plusieurs variables mesurées; les corrélations sont plus faibles pour les couples qui cohabitent, ainsi que pour ceux qui forment tôt une union, ceux qui vivent dans les régions rurales et, ce qui est fort intéressant, ceux qui divorcent ultérieurement. Nous interprétons ce dernier résultat comme étant la preuve
