  • The Flip Side of Turnover

    Mignon Duffy, Reagan Baughman et al.ARTICLEFeminist Economics2021References: 10

    Scholars have explored the ways that conventional economic theory does not fully explain the distribution and characteristics of caring labor – the work, unpaid and paid, of caring for those who are young, elderly, or disabled. This paper explores a critical dimension of paid care – high turnover rates in the lowest-wage segment of the sector (including childcare, nursing homes, home health). Using longitudinal data from the 2008 Survey of Income…

    Open AccessMinghua Li, Reagan BaughmanARTICLEINQUIRY The Journal of Health…2010

    This paper uses data from the National Survey of America's Families (1997-2002) to explore the links between eligibility for the State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP), health insurance coverage, medical care utilization, and health outcomes. We find that SCHIP significantly increased health insurance coverage rates for American children between 1997 and 2002, with most of the gains in coverage for older children. Higher coverage rates…

  • How well can we track cohabitation using the sipp? A consideration of direct and inferred measures

    Open AccessReagan Baughman, Stacy Dickert-Conlin et al.ARTICLEDemography2002Cited by: 11References: 11

    Cohabitation is an alternative to marriage and to living independently for an increasing number of Americans. Still, research that explores links between living arrangements and economic behavior is limited by a lack of data that explicitly identify cohabiting couples. To aid researchers in using the Survey of Income and Program Participation’s (SIPP) rich data to explore cohabitation issues, we consider direct and inferred measures of cohabitati…
