Gender Gap at the Trough of the Estimated Response
| 18–24 | 25-44 | 45–64 | 65+ | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| (1) | (2) | (3) | (4) | |
| Lockdown stringency | − 27.07*** (1.80) | − 20.60*** (1.60) | − 19.75*** (1.57) | − 15.19*** (1.77) |
| Women × lockdown stringency | − 3.58*** (0.95) | − 4.73*** (0.67) | − 3.69*** (0.73) | 2.33 (1.46) |
| Days after the shock | 7 | 7 | 7 | 7 |
| Observations | 18,798 | 18,798 | 18,830 | 17,872 |

Notes: The table reports the coefficient on lockdown stringency and the coefficient on the interaction term between the gender dummy and lockdown stringency at the trough of the estimated response. All regressions include the contemporaneous value and/or seven lags of the stringency index, the log of daily cases, the interaction between a gender dummy and the stringency index, and province, gender, and time fixed effects. Standard errors are clustered at the province level. ***, **, *
