Female labour supply over the life-cycle

Author

  • Pedro Duarte Neves

Abstract

This note describes two alternative approaches to identify the parameters that characterize intertemporal female labour supply, allowing for uncertainty, nonparticipation and nonseparability. Econometric results indicate that the choice of functional forms is one of the most important issues in the empirical analysis of labour supply.
