• Taxation and Labor Supply of Married Couples Across Countries: A Macroeconomic Analysis (2018, unknown): “McDaniel (2011) shows in a dynamic model that labor income and consumption taxes are much more important than capital income taxes and productivity growth in explaining the different developments of total hours over time across countries. Moreover, Wallenius (2013) finds that differences in retireme”
• Changes in hours worked, 1950?2000 (2004, unknown): “Jones, Manuelli, and McGrattan (2003) argue that observed changes in the gender wage gap can explain simultaneously the significant increases in average hours worked by married women and the relative constancy in the hours worked by single women, single men, and married men.”
• Fertility Theories: Can They Explain the Negative Fertility-Income Relationship? (2008, unknown): “…data for 1910, 1940 and 1950, where income is represented by father’s occupation, 9Recent contributions include Aiyagari, Greenwood, and Guner (2000), Erosa, Fuster, and Restuccia (2005a), Fernandez, Guner, and Knowles (2005), Greenwood, Guner, and Knowles (2003), Sylvester (2007), and Zhao (2008).”
• The Output Cost of Gender Discrimination: A Model-Based Macroeconomic Estimate (2008, unknown): “(14)Is there evidence that employers discriminate against women? If the male-female wage differential were due to employer discrimination, then non-discriminatory employers could hire more women and enjoy a higher profit, which is what Kawaguchi (2006) finds using Japanese firm-level panel data.”
• Divorce Risk, Wages and Working Wives: A Quantitative Life‐Cycle Analysis of Female Labour Force Participation (2014, unknown): “Other explanations have emphasised changes in the wage structure such as in the skill premium, the gender wage gap, or in the returns to labour market experience ( Jones et al., 2003; Olivetti, 2006; Gayle and Golan, 2012; Knowles, 2013).”
• Dynamic Female Labor Supply (2009, unknown): “It should be noted that very similar trends have been observed for unmarried women while for men a similar pattern began earlier and reached a stable distribution by the turn of the century (see also www.tau.ac.il/~eckstein/FLS/FLS_index.html and Eckstein and Nagypl, 2005).”
• Cultural Change as Learning: The Evolution of Female Labor Force Participation over a Century (2011, unknown): “6It should be noted that Jones, Manuelli, and McGrattan (2003) show that changes in the gender gap can account for much of the changes in married women’s labor supply from 1950 to 1990 in a model with home production and leisure.”
• Gender Gaps and the Rise of the Service Economy (2017, unknown): “If the expansion of the service sector makes it cheaper to outsource these activities, one should expect a reallocation of women’s work from the household to the market.”
• Changes in women's hours of market work: The role of returns to experience (2006, unknown): “An alternative explanation for the increase in women’s average work hours that is related to changes in the wage structure is the decline in the gender wage gap (Jones et al., 2003).”
• Families in Macroeconomics (2016, unknown): “…from private information on work effort and specialization within the household. declining gender gap in explaining the rise in participation is emphasized by Jones et al. (2015), who also allow for technological improvements in home production, but find them not to be quantitatively important.”
• Taxation and Household Labour Supply (2012, background): “…in macroeconomic setups; Jones, Manuelli and McGrattan (2004), Greenwood, Seshadri and Yorukoglu (2005), Erosa, Fuster, Restuccia (2010), Albanesi and Olivetti (2007), Knowles (2007), Attanasio, Low and Sánchez Marcos (2008), and Greenwood and Guner (2009) are representative papers in this group.”
