Notes: Marginal effects from multinomial logit models are reported. All models utilize sampling weights, and control for state and year fixed effects in addition to the covariates listed in Table 2. Standard errors are clustered at the state level and reported in parentheses. N=22,182 women ages 18-39 with a child less than one year old. Asterisks denote significance as follows:
***
significant at 1%
**
significant at 5%
*
significant at 10%.
