本文探讨了科特迪瓦家庭内部收入分配对儿童人体测量状况的影响。我们发现,女性现金收入比例的增加会增加男孩相对于女孩的同龄身高,而且这种影响在统计上是显着的。我们认为这一结果可能反映了对效率和公平的担忧,在这种情况下,这两者是相辅相成的。
This paper examines the effects of the intrahousehold distribution of income on children's anthropometric status in the Cote d'Ivoire. We find that increases in the proportion of cash income accruing to women increases boys' height-for-age relative to girls, and that this effect is statistically significant. We suggest that this result may reflect efficiency and equity concerns which, in this case, reinforce each other.
