• Changes in women's hours of market work: The role of returns to experience (2006, unknown): “2 The study of the effects of a changing wage structure on these decisions is the focus of a recent paper by Caucutt et al. (2002).”
• The effects of motherhood timing on career path (2011, background): “(1984) finds that women in higher-paying occupations choose longer intervals from first marriage to motherhood, and Caucutt et al. (2002) associates higher female earnings with delayed motherhood.”
• Why are married men working so much (2005, methodology): “The model also has implications for the decline in marriage over the last 30 years, the subject of a number of other equilibrium analyses, including Greenwood, Guner, and Knowles (2003), Regalia and R os-Rull (1999), Caucutt, Guner, and Knowles (2002).”
• “The Motherhood Wage Gap for Women in the United States: The Importance of College and Fertility Delay” (2005, background): “This theoretical contribution is extended by Caucutt et al. (2002), who develop an equilibrium search model of marriage, divorce, and child investment that permits differences in the timing of fertility.”
• Why Has Home Ownership Fallen among the Young (2009, unknown): “This implies the same value for the fraction of individuals who do not marry by age 27 for the cohort born in the period 1958–1967 reported in Table IV of Caucutt et al. (2002), 34%.”

(2002, unknown): “While the sequential model yields additional predictions regarding the timing and spacing of births which are important in certain applications (see Caucutt, Guner, and Knowles 2002), as long as only total and net fertility rates are of interest, the standard Barro-Becker model appears to be a…”
• Women in the Labour Force: How Well is Europe Doing ? (2005, background): “9 Caucutt et al (2002) also investigate the impact of the increased returns to experience on women’s fertility decisions.”
• Fertility Theories: Can They Explain the Negative Fertility-Income Relationship? (2008, unknown): “If education is a good proxy for female home productivity, then the evidence in Jones and Tertilt (2008) contradicts this model implication.”
