花在提供非正式护理上的时间对护理人员来说是一种实际成本,并可能影响到他们对其他活动(包括有偿工作)的决定。本研究提供了对非正式照顾者产生的机会工资的估计,并探讨了这些成本对他们决定减少或放弃劳动力参与的影响。我们考虑了两个时间点的照顾者:1982年和1989年。我们对护理人员的估算工资差异更大,范围也比其他地方报道的要大,从每小时0.78美元到27.18美元不等,而文献中的数值从4.64美元到10.30美元不等。在这两年中,估算工资较高的护理人员更有可能工作,这种影响在1989年更为明显,因为所有非经济因素都变得不那么重要。然而,住宿(工作时间减少或失去工作机会)仅在1982年随着计算工资的增加而减少。1989年,长者身体虚弱成为住宿的重要决定因素。
Time spent providing informal care represents a real cost to caregivers and potentially affects their decisions about alternative activities, including paid work. This study offers estimates of opportunity wages incurred by informal caregivers and explores the impact of these costs on their decisions to reduce or abandon workforce participation. We consider caregivers at two points in time: 1982 and 1989. Our estimates of caregivers' imputed wages vary more widely and range higher than those reported elsewhere, varying from $0.78 to $27.18 per hour, compared to values in the literature ranging from $4.64 to $10.30. In both years, caregivers with higher imputed wages were significantly more likely to work, with this effect stronger in 1989 as all noneconomic factors became less important. However, accommodation (working fewer hours or foregoing job opportunities) decreased with higher imputed wages in 1982 only. In 1989, elders' frailty became a significant determinant of accommodation.
