对于最近的一批美国夫妇来说，丈夫和妻子之间的传统劳动分工与家庭中孩子的存在密切相关。我们定义的专业化和市场强度的措施，在家庭的房子工作和收入来描述已婚男性和女性的时间和精力的共同分配。使用收入动态面板研究的纵向数据，我们估计了一对夫妇的第一个孩子出生后的结果的变化，以及这些变化与父母教育，离婚风险相关因素和出生队列的关联。平均而言，专业化的增加和市场强度福尔斯下降，但我们发现的证据相当大的异质性的影响，儿童的家庭行为，包括父亲的反应。晚育群体中的已婚夫妇对第一个孩子的出生反应不太专业，最终离婚的夫妇也是如此。令人惊讶的是，第一个孩子的性别对父母反应的市场强度有重大影响。
For recent cohorts of American couples, the traditional division of labor between husbands and wives is strongly associated with the presence of children in the household. We define measures of specialization and market intensity in household house worked and earnings to describe the joint allocation of time and effort by married men and women. Using longitudinal data from the Panel Study of Income Dynamics, we estimate the changes in the outcomes that follow the birth of a couple’s first child, and the association of these changes with parental education, factors related to divorce risk, and birth cohort. On average, specialization increases and market intensity falls, but we find evidence of considerable heterogeneity in the effects of children o household behavior, including the responses of fathers. Married couples from later birth cohorts specialize less in response to the birth of their first child, as do couples who eventually divorce. The gender of the first child has, surprisingly, a significant impact on the market intensity of the parents’ response.
