"Child penalties" have many causes. A challenge is to detect some that policies can affect.
Our new paper studies the role of job search frictions: not only may mothers want to work less/in distinct jobs, they may also struggle more to get their preferred work arrangement. (1/6)

There is growing evidence that women have more pro-social behavior. Even beyond the objective of understanding gender inequality, there might be a lot to learn about how to promote social welfare!
