Notes. Table 2 reports the coefficients and standard errors from OLS regressions of employment (rows 1 and 2) and labor migration (row 3) on an indicator that a household has a resident member of pension age. The sample is restricted to household members greater than age 17 and less than age 51 at HSE2. In row 1, it is further restricted to resident members only. In columns 1 to 3, regressions include controls for the number of resident members aged 0 to 5, 6 to 17, 18 to 50, and aged 51 and above, a complete set of indicators for the member’s years of completed schooling, and a quartic in the member’s age. In columns 4 and 5, regressions are based on the sample selection rules and control variables used by in Bertrand et al. (2003). The sample is restricted to individuals living in three generation households and the regressions include the number of resident members, the number of resident members aged 0 to 5, 6 to 15, 16 to 18, 19 to 21, 22 to 24, an indicator that the member has completed at least grade 8, and a quartic in the member’s age. For all regressions, estimated standard errors allow for correlation in the unobservables of individuals who are members of the same household.
