Non-unitary Models of Household Behavior: A Survey of the Literature

Chiappori, Pierre-André; Donni, Olivier - Institute for the Study of Labor (IZA) - 2009

This article considers non-unitary models of household behavior. These models suppose explicitly that households consist of a number of different members with preferences that are different from each other. They can be split up into two principal categories: cooperative (or collective) models,...

Collective Labor Supply of Native Dutch and Immigrant Households in the Netherlands

Klaveren, Chris Van; Praag, Bernard M.S. Van; Brink, … - CESifo - 2009

We estimate a collective time allocation model, where Dutch, Surinamese/Antillean and Turkish households behave as if both spouses maximize a household utility function. We assume that paid labor and housework are the endogenous choice variables and furthermore consider household production....

Testing the Behavior of Romanian Households

Pauna, Bianca - In: Journal for Economic Forecasting 6 (2009) 3, pp. 85-99

common utility model and the collective model. In this paper we test both the implications of the common utility model and … the implications of the collective model using Romanian household data. The results are very strong. The common utility … model fails to describe accurately the household’s behavior, while the restrictions that the collective model imposes on the …

Chapter 16. Intrahousehold Inequality

Chiappori, Pierre-André; Meghir, Costas - In: Handbook of income distribution : volume 2, (pp. 1369-1418). 2015

Studies of inequality often ignore resource allocation within the household. In doing so they miss an important element of the distribution of welfare that can vary dramatically depending on overall environmental and economic factors. Thus, measures of inequality that ignore intrahousehold...

The changing intra-household resource allocation in Russia

Lacroix, Guy; Radtchenko, Natalia - 2008

During the transition toward a market economy, Russian workers have had to face important structural changes in the labour market as well as dramatic changes in their real earnings. In the process, the wage gap between men and women has varied wildly over that period. In recent years, young...

An Afriat theorem for the collective model of household consumption

Cherchye, Laurens; De Rock, Bram; Vermeulen, Frederic - 2008

We provide a nonparametric 'revealed preference' characterization of rational household behavior in terms of the collective consumption model, while accounting for general (possibly non-convex) individual preferences. We establish a Collective Axiom of Revealed Preference (CARP), which provides...
