Temperature and Maltreatment of Young Children
We estimate the impacts of temperature on alleged and substantiated child maltreatment among young children using administrative data from state child protective services agencies. Leveraging short-term weather variation, we find increases in the number of young children involved in cases of alleged and substantiated maltreatment during hot periods. Additional analysis identifies neglect as the temperature-sensitive maltreatment type, and we find…
Family Support During Hard Times: Dynamics of Intergenerational Exchange after Adverse Events
We use event studies to examine changes in intergenerational financial transfers and informal care within families following wealth loss, job exit, widowhood, and health shocks. We find sharp reductions in giving to adult children following negative shocks to parents’ wealth and earned income, particularly in low-wealth households. Giving also decreases with some health shocks and increases following spousal death. Meanwhile, children of low-weal…
For richer, if not for poorer? Marriage and divorce over the business cycle
Who Suffers During Recessions
In this paper, we examine how business cycles affect labor market outcomes in the United States. We conduct a detailed analysis of how cycles affect outcomes differentially across persons of differing age, education, race, and gender, and we compare the cyclical sensitivity during the Great Recession to that in the early 1980s recession. We present raw tabulations and estimate a state panel data model that leverages variation across U.S. states i…
