Abstract

The quantity/quality tradeoff argument in explaining fertility decline has focused on the association between more education among children and fewer siblings. Human capital formation is also related to other dimensions of well-being. The goal of this analysis is to perform cross-national comparisons on the association between the number of children in a household and three measures related to child well-being: being harshly disciplined, mildly disciplined and child labor. The analysis is based on logistic regressions estimated using the Multiple Indicators Cluster Survey (MICS) datasets of 24 nations grouped into four regions. At the micro level, there is a direct association between families having more children and both the odds of children working and the odds of children being harshly disciplined, but the association is weak for mild discipline. In general, the associations found at the micro level reflect the findings that countries with higher fertility have also higher proportions of children working or being harshly disciplined.

一个家庭中孩子的数量和孩子的幸福
在解释生育率下降时,数量/质量权衡的论点集中在儿童受更多教育和兄弟姐妹更少之间的关系上。人力资本的形成也与福祉的其他方面有关。本分析的目的是对一个家庭的儿童数量和与儿童福利有关的三个指标之间的关系进行跨国比较:严厉的纪律,温和的纪律和童工。该分析基于逻辑回归,使用将24个国家分为四个区域的多指标类集调查(MICS)数据集进行估计。在微观层面上,有更多孩子的家庭与孩子工作的几率和孩子受到严厉惩罚的几率之间存在直接联系,但对于温和的纪律,这种联系很弱。总的来说,在微观层面上发现的联系反映了生育率较高的国家儿童工作或受到严厉惩罚的比例也较高。
