Do Highly Paid, Highly Skilled Women Experience the Largest Motherhood Penalty? (2016, background): “Most studies show that estimated penalties are substantially reduced, but not eliminated, when models add a control for employment experience and tenure; that is, they explain part, but not all, of total motherhood penalties (Anderson et al. 2002, 2003; Budig and England 2001; Budig and Hodges 2010;”
The effects of motherhood timing on career path (2011, methodology): “7 The wage effects found in the panel estimates in Section 6 have been confirmed in later papers such as Ellwood et al. (2004) and Loughran and Zissimopoulos (2009) using OLS models. Both papers extend the analysis to consider career outcomes for men and Loughran and Zissimopoulos (2009) also estima”
Fathers and the Flexibility Stigma (2013, unknown): “In contrast, Ellwood, Wilde, and Batchelder (2009) find that the wage penalty for childbearing is higher for skilled women than for other workers, and that the penalty persists over time, even if women delay childbearing.”
The Mommy Effect: Do Women Anticipate the Employment Effects of Motherhood? (2018, unknown): “A small set of papers have examined the effect of childbirth using a woman fixed-effects strategy but have not traced out the effects in event-time, so have less ability to untangle coincident trends in labor supply and family planning (Waldfogel, 1997; Wilde et al., 2010).”
Birth Spacing and Sibling Outcomes (2012, background): “Systematic misreporting of miscarriage among women who intentionally aborted would bias our estimates (Wilde, Batchelder, and Ellwood 2010).”
Gender Inequality and Economic Development: Fertility, Education and Norms (2017, unknown): “The second is that the impact of education is dampened by children, because even highly educated women face large child penalties when they become parents (see also Bertrand et al. 2010; Wilde et al. 2010; Kleven et al. 2016).”
