摘要

本研究调查了埃塞俄比亚家庭法改革的影响,该改革提高了女性的结婚年龄(以及法律的其他方面)对受影响妇女子女的营养摄入。使用差异中的差异和事件研究策略,结果表明,暴露于改革导致饮食多样性显着增加(相对于平均值增加14%),并且食用水果和蔬菜,富含维生素a的水果和蔬菜,绿叶蔬菜和动物源食品的可能性显着增加。这种影响似乎不是由于妇女经济参与的变化,例如她们的代理和外部选择。相反,这似乎意味着改革的实施影响到妇女在性和婚姻关系上的决策权方面的社会地位。

Raising the Age of Marriage Entry and Child's Nutrition Intake? Evidence from the Reform of Ethiopia's Family Law
Abstract This study investigates the impact of a family law reform in Ethiopia that raises the age of marriage entry for females (among other aspects of the law) on the nutritional intake of the children of affected women. Using the difference-in-differences and event-study strategies, the result suggests that exposure to the reform led to a significant increase in dietary diversity (14 percent increase relative to the mean) and a significant increase in the likelihood of consuming fruits and vegetables, fruits and vegetables rich in vitamin A, green leafy vegetables, and animal-source foods. The effect does not appear to be due to changes in women's economic engagement, such as their agency and outside options. Instead, it seems to imply that the implementation of the reform affects women's social status in terms of their decision-making power over sexual and marital relations.
