本文的目的是仔细研究在转型经济中，已婚妇女的非劳动收入和自己的工资率对劳动力供应决策的影响。该文件首先表明，匈牙利女性的劳动力参与率虽然有所下降，但仍然极高，与西方国家男性的经济活动相当。然后，它估计劳动力供应参数使用的模型，控制与已婚妇女的劳动力供应的样本选择问题。工资弹性估计是高和积极的（1.81），而收入的影响是一致的休闲是一个正常的好。未发现样本选择偏倚。
The aim of this paper is to closely examine the effect on a married woman’s labour supply decision of non‐labour income and of her own wage rate in a transition economy. The paper first shows that labour force participation rates for Hungarian females, though decreasing, were still extremely high and comparable to male economic activity in western countries. It then estimates labour supply parameters using a model that controls for sample selection issues associated with the labour supply of married women. Wage elasticity is estimated to be high and positive (1.81) while the income effect is consistent with leisure being a normal good. No sample selection bias is found.
