项目摘要
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Family size has long been a barometer of the current and future prospects of parents and their children, but the implications of living in a large or small family for children have evolved considerably over time and across societies. When extended family ties are strong and children can provide financial resources to the household, a large family may not necessarily imply disadvantages for all children. With economic development and increasing returns to education, the benefits parents accrue from having many children become increasingly at odds with the educational disadvantages faced by adolescents with many siblings. This tension is vividly seen in rapidly emerging economies such as Brazil, and highlights the challenging educational gaps faced by such countries. This project, therefore, will examine the links between family size and adolescent education in Brazil, providing a valuable contrast to the U.S.-based literature on this topic, and extending recent research that challenges the long-standing conclusion that there is a direct tradeoff between having a large family and investing in children's schooling. While the early empirical literature has generally confirmed the theoretical prediction that family size is negatively related to children's education, a recent stream of research has cast doubt on the homogeneity of these findings on conceptual and methodological grounds. Because of the incredible temporal and regional variation in social conditions, fertility regimes, and education Brazil has experienced over the last decades, the country offers an excellent opportunity to sort out the conflicting evidence on how family size predicts children's education. Brazil also offers high-quality nationally representative data that cover most of the years of the demographic transition as well as the dramatic changes in socio-economic conditions the country has experienced. This project extends previous research on the connections between family size and children's education by examining historical, regional, and gender variation in the case of Brazil, while at the same time addressing methodological concerns about the joint determination of education and family size that have recently gained traction in the literature. To accomplish this goal, we will implement twins and same-sex siblings' instrumental variable approaches using 32 years of nationally representative data, the PNAD (1977- 2009). This research is important because understanding whether and how the effect of family size on adolescent education varies by social, demographic and economic context is the first step toward addressing broader inequalities in social opportunities, a concern of particular relevance for Brazil, one of the most unequal countries in the world. The public health relevance of this project also comes from well-established evidence that rising children's educational levels improve social capacity for population health with substantial payoffs both in terms of reducing the burden of health problems at the societal level and in improving the quality of life of individuals.
描述(由申请人提供):长期以来,家庭规模一直是父母及其子女当前和未来前景的晴雨表,但随着时间的推移和社会的发展,生活在一个大家庭或小家庭对儿童的影响已经发生了很大的变化。如果大家庭关系牢固,子女可以为家庭提供经济来源,那么大家庭不一定意味着所有子女都处于不利地位。随着经济的发展和教育回报的增加,父母从多子女中获得的好处与兄弟姐妹多的青少年面临的教育劣势越来越不一致。这种紧张关系在巴西等迅速崛起的经济体中表现得尤为明显,并突显了这些国家面临的挑战性教育差距。 因此,本项目将研究巴西家庭规模与青少年教育之间的联系,与美国形成有价值的对比。本报告基于关于这一主题的文献,并扩展了最近的研究,这些研究挑战了长期以来的结论,即在拥有一个大家庭和投资于儿童教育之间存在直接的权衡。 虽然早期的实证文献普遍证实了理论预测,即家庭规模与儿童教育呈负相关,但最近的一系列研究却从概念和方法上对这些研究结果的同质性提出了质疑。 由于巴西在过去几十年中经历了社会条件、生育制度和教育方面令人难以置信的时间和区域差异,该国提供了一个极好的机会来整理关于家庭规模如何预测儿童教育的相互矛盾的证据。 巴西还提供了高质量的全国代表性数据,涵盖人口结构转型的大部分年份以及该国经历的社会经济条件的巨大变化。该项目扩展了以前的研究家庭规模和儿童的教育之间的联系,通过审查历史,区域和性别差异的情况下,巴西,而在同一时间解决方法的关注,教育和家庭规模的联合决定,最近在文献中获得牵引力。为了实现这一目标,我们将使用32年的全国代表性数据PNAD(1977- 2009)实施双胞胎和同性兄弟姐妹的工具变量方法。这项研究很重要,因为了解家庭规模对青少年教育的影响是否以及如何因社会,人口和经济背景而异,是解决社会机会更广泛的不平等的第一步,这对世界上最不平等的国家之一巴西特别重要。这一项目与公共卫生的相关性还来自于确凿的证据,即儿童教育水平的提高可提高社会促进人口健康的能力,在减轻社会一级健康问题的负担和提高个人生活质量方面都有很大的回报。
