摘要

本文评估了被拒绝堕胎的财务和经济后果。我们将信用报告数据与Turnaway研究联系起来，该研究收集了美国接受或被拒绝堕胎的妇女的高质量纵向数据。我们比较了怀孕刚好超过和低于允许堕胎的胎龄限制的妇女在10年期间的财务结果。在流产之前，这两组人的结局相似。在那次遭遇之后，被拒绝堕胎的妇女经历了持续数年的经济困境。(j51, j18, j13, j16)

The Economic Consequences of Being Denied an Abortion

This paper evaluates the financial and economic consequences of being denied an abortion. We link credit report data to the Turnaway Study, which collected high-quality, longitudinal data on women receiving or being denied a wanted abortion in the United States. We compare financial outcomes over a ten-year period for women who had pregnancies just above and below a gestational age limit allowing for a wanted abortion. Outcomes evolved similarly for the two groups prior to the abortion encounter. Following the encounter, women who were denied an abortion experience a large increase in financial distress that remains for several years. (JEL G51, I18, J13, J16)
