目的 - 本文的目的是批判性地回顾文献，以评估工业化国家家庭劳动力供给 S 形模型的相关性。设计/方法/方法——研究使用了各种各样的方法，因此不容易进行比较，但它们涵盖了广泛的相关因素，例如历史趋势、附加福利和住房抵押贷款、种族差异、农业劳动力、低收入家庭、儿童保育、福利的影响以及工作时间的衡量问题。调查结果 - 尽管福利制度在一定程度上模糊了较低工资水平下的预测收入影响（主要针对女性的未来下降部分），但该模型似乎仍然对这些国家具有一定的相关性，特别是在实际工资下降的情况下。家庭总体上沿着这条曲线上升得更高，性别角色差异较小，女性对劳动力的依恋更强，以及受过教育的女性的选型择偶。原创性/价值——该模型主要与最不发达国家相关，具有深远的实际影响，而审查强调了工业化国家劳动力供应的复杂性。
Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to critically review the literature to assess the relevance of the S-shaped model of family labor supply for industrialized countries. Design/methodology/approach - Studies use a wide variety of methodologies and therefore are not readily comparable, but instead they cover a wide range of relevant factors such as historical trends, fringe benefits and home mortgages, ethnic differences, farm labor, low-income households, child care, the impact of welfare benefits, and the problem of the measurement of work hours. Findings - In spite of welfare systems that blur somewhat the predicted income effect at lower wage levels (forward falling segment primarily for women), this model appears to still bear some relevance for these countries, in particular in the face of declining real wages. Families have generally moved up higher along that curve, with less differentiated gender roles, women's stronger labor force attachment, and assortative mating of educated women. Originality/value - The model is mostly relevant for LDCs and has far-reaching practical consequences, while the review highlights the complexity of labor supply in industrialized countries.
