本文使用了一个独特的数据集来衡量精神疾病的经济和人口后果。我们发现，精神疾病大大减少了个人的收入，在某些情况下，这种影响持续长达15年。精神疾病也被证明会影响一个人结婚或保持婚姻的能力，减少他所拥有的孩子的数量，并鼓励他的妻子工作。
This article uses a unique data set to measure the economic and demographic consequences of mental illness. We find that mental illness significantly reduces an individual's earnings and that in some cases this effect lasts as long as 15 years. Mental illness is also shown to affect an individual's ability to marry or stay married, lowers the number of children that he has, and encourages his wife to work.
