Intertemporal Preferences and Labor Supply
Open accessAbstract
In this paper, the authors examine whether nonseparable preference structures ar e important in characterizing life-cycle labor supply. Using longitud inal data on prime-age males from the Panel Study of Income Dynamics, they estimate a model of life-cycle leisure and consumption under un certainty in which intertemporal preferences are allowed to be nonsep arable in leisure. The model tests several alternative specifications considered in the literature. They investigate the robustness of the ir findings to certain forms of population heterogeneity and types of model misspecification. Across alternative specifications, the autho rs find that the standard assumption of intertemporally separable pre ferences for leisure is not consistent with the data.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
