论文摘要
孕产是劳动力市场上性别差距的主要贡献者。 IVF是一种辅助繁殖的方法，可以延迟生育能力，从而导致母亲收入损失减少。在这项研究中，我估算了由于国家保险授权引起的体外受精（IVF）的扩展效果。我使用差异差异模型来估计IVF可及性提高以延迟分娩和减少母亲收入罚款的影响。使用当前人口调查（CPS）的生育补充数据集，我估计，与没有改变其政策的州的结果变化相比，州实施授权时的结果如何变化。结果表明，IVF要求将母性的概率提高38个百分点（p <0.01）。但是，结果没有提供证据表明IVF保险要求影响妇女收入。
Motherhood is the main contributor to gender gaps in the labor market. IVF is a method of assisted reproduction that can delay fertility, which results in decreased motherhood income penalty. In this research, I estimate the effects of expanded access to in vitro fertilization (IVF) arising from state insurance mandates. I use a difference-in-differences model to estimate the effect of increased IVF accessibility for delaying childbirth and decreasing the motherhood income penalty. Using the fertility supplement dataset from the Current Population Survey (CPS), I estimate how outcomes change in states when they implement their mandates compared to how outcomes change in states that are not changing their policies. The results indicate that IVF mandates increase the probability of motherhood by 38 by 3.1 percentage points (p<0.01). However, the results provide no evidence that IVF insurance mandates impact women's earnings.
