摘要

本文以土耳其义务教育法的变化为例,探讨了女性教育与青少年生育率之间的因果关系。使用跨群体接触CSL的差异和省份之间的差异(以出生省份额外教室的建设强度为工具变量),结果表明,小学教育的完成使青少年生育率降低了0.37个,青少年生育率降低了约25个百分点。对异质性效应的探索表明,在人口密度低、农业活动高的省份,女性教育对青少年生育率的影响更大。最后,CSL通过推迟结婚来推迟生育,从而降低生育率。

The Impact of Female Education on Teenage Fertility: Evidence from Turkey
This paper explores the causal relationship between female education and teenage fertility by exploiting a change in the compulsory schooling law (CSL) in Turkey. Using variation in the exposure to the CSL across cohorts and variation across provinces by the intensity of additional classrooms constructed in the birth provinces as an instrumental variable, the results indicate that primary school completion reduces teenage fertility by 0.37 births and the incidence of teenage childbearing by around 25 percentage points. Exploring heterogeneous effects indicates that female education reduces teenage fertility more in provinces with lower population density and higher agricultural activity. Finally, the CSL postpones childbearing by delaying marriage, thereby reducing fertility.

期刊介绍: The B.E. Journal of Economic Analysis & Policy welcomes submissions that employ microeconomics to analyze issues in business, consumer behavior, and public policy. We aim to be an international forum for scholarship, whether the scholarship considers an issue that is general or that pertains to a particular country or region, but authors should bear in mind that our readers come from around the world. Potential issues of interest include: the interaction of firms, the functioning of markets, the effects of domestic and international policy, and the design of organizations and institutions.
