本文探讨了母亲在家庭中的社会经济地位的影响，如自主权，能力，自由和讨价还价的能力，在印度的儿童出生登记使用全国代表性的印度人类发展调查-II（IHDS-II），2011-12。我们已经估计了一个多层次的混合效应模型，占数据的层次结构，并允许我们检查未观察到的“区”和“社区”的特点，沿着与个别儿童水平的特点，出生登记的概率的影响。结果表明，地区之间和个人之间的差异在印度出生登记概率的变化中占有相当高的比例。在个别儿童一级，母亲的社会经济地位，如独立行动的能力和与外界的接触，大大提高了出生登记的可能性。更重要的是，母亲自主权指标的边际效应：母亲自由行动的能力和对资源的控制，对出生登记的影响在印度各地区各不相同。其他变量，如机构分娩、母亲产前寻求保健的行为、种姓、宗教、家庭财富和父母教育，是出生登记的重要决定因素。
This paper examines the effect of maternal socio-economic status in the household, such as their autonomy, ability, freedom and bargaining power, on child birth registration in India using the nationally representative India Human Development Survey-II (IHDS-II), 2011–12. We have estimated a multilevel mixed effects model which accounts for the hierarchical structure of the data and allows us to examine the effects of unobserved ‘district’ and ‘community’ characteristics along with individual child level characteristics on probability of birth registration. The results show that between-districts and between individuals differences share a considerably high and an almost equal proportion of the variations in probability of birth registration in India. At individual child level, mother’s socio-economic status such as her ability to move around independently and her exposure to outside world, significantly raise the probability of birth registration. More importantly, the marginal effects of the maternal autonomy indicators: mother’s ability to move around freely and her control over resources, on birth registration vary across districts in India. Other variables such as institutional birth, mother’s antenatal care seeking behaviour, caste, religion, household wealth and parental education are significant determinants of birth registration.
