性别身份认同对女性劳动供给和家庭收入结构的影响——教育与城乡差异的视角

The Impact of Gender Identity on Female Labor Supply and Household Income Structure——Perspectives from Education and Rural-Urban Differences

在中国劳动供给不足日益显现的背景下,本文考察性别身份认同对女性劳动供给和家庭收入结构的影响。首先,婚姻市场层面分析证实了中国存在性别身份认同规范;其次,妻子潜在收入超过丈夫的概率越高使妻子劳动参与的概率越低,或使妻子实际收入越有可能低于其潜在收入、相对收入越低、越有可能是家庭帮工;再次,低教育和农业户口组受性别身份认同影响更大;最后,当妻子收入超过丈夫时,随后一年妻子不工作的概率显著上升。

We attempt to investigate the impact of gender identity on female labor supply and household income structure. We find evidence of gender identity norm in China’s marriage market. When a wife’s potential income is likely to exceed her husband’s, she is less likely to be in the labor force and earns less than her potential or get a lower relative income if she does work. These impacts are more substantial on those who are less educated and from rural areas. If a wife earns more than her husband, she is less likely to be in the labor force in the following year.
