在本研究中，我们根据纵向数据，调查日本中年男性和女性是否变得不太可能有工作，以及当他们有一个需要照顾的家庭成员时，他们的幸福感是否会下降。我们发现，有一个家庭成员谁需要照顾就业一致的负面影响，但没有影响主观健康和生活满意度。此外，基于不匹配和匹配数据的差异中的差异（DID）估计表明，2000年推出的长期护理保险（LTCI）并没有减轻对就业概率的不利影响。
In this study, based on longitudinal data, we investigate whether Japanese middle-aged men and women become less likely to have a job and whether their sense of well-being decreases when they have a family member who needs care. We find a consistent negative impact of having a family member who needs care on employment, but no impact on subjective health and life satisfaction. Further, the differences-in-differences (DID) estimation, based on both unmatched and matched data, shows that the Long-Term Care Insurance (LTCI) introduced in 2000 did not mitigate the adverse impact on the probability of being employed.
