A2b Parental Health and Time Investments in Children

Tuesday, May 19, 2020 at 4:15 PM–5:30 PM CDT
Room 2
Key Words

parent health, time use, human capital investment

Short Description

This paper uses the Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID) and PSID-Child Development Supplement data sets to investigate the effect of an adverse health event experienced by a parent on parental time spent with their children. The preliminary results suggest evidence that maternal psychological problems reduce time investment in children, in particular time helping with homework. The on-going research focuses on two efforts: 1. differentiating the correlations by parental education; and 2. exploring the underlying mechanisms.
