摘要

我们利用Covid-19大流行期间政策引起的变化，制定了一种识别策略，以确定在家工作对心理健康的因果影响。我们通过将纵向微观数据与跨职业远程工作可行性的横截面变化以及跨部门对现场工作的法律限制相结合，克服了内生性。在我们的50多名欧洲人的样本中，远程工作增加了悲伤和抑郁的感觉，尤其是对妇女、家里有成年子女的父母，以及在采取严格控制措施和低超额死亡率的地区。

The causal effect of working from home on mental health of 50+ Europeans

We develop an identification strategy for the causal effect of working from home on mental health leveraging policy-induced variation during the Covid-19 pandemic. We overcome endogeneity by combining longitudinal microdata with the cross-sectional variation in the feasibility of remote working across occupations and in the legal restrictions to in-presence work across sectors. In our sample of 50+ Europeans, remote working increases feelings of sadness and depression, especially for women, parents with adult children at home, and in regions with strict containment measures and low excess mortality.
