Bu çalışmada, TÜİK hane halkı bütçe anketlerinden yararlanılarak kadınların işgücüne katılımını belirleyen faktörler araştırılmaktadır. Bebek sahipliği, eğitim durumu, yaş ve hane geliri değişkenleri kullanılarak probit model tahmincileri elde edilmektedir. İktisat teorisinden bilindiği gibi, işgücüne katılım-boş zaman arasındaki bireysel tercihler gelir ve ikame etkisi üzerinden belirlenmektedir. Gelir etkisini tahmininde, “toplam hanenin geliri” değişkeninin kullanılması, ekonometrik açıdan içsellik problemine yol açmaktadır. Bu çerçevede çalışmada geleneksel probit modellerine ek olarak, araç değişken tekniği üzerinden kurulan probit modeli tahmincileri elde edilmektedir. Kadınların işgücüne katılımı üzerinde bebek sahipliği, yaş ve hane gelirin etkisi negatif iken üniversite mezuniyetinin etkisi pozitiftir.
In this study, we explore the factors that determine the participation of women in the workforce by using the budget surveys. Probit model forecasts are obtained using child ownership, educational status, age and household income variables. As known from the theory of economics, the individual preferences between participation and free time in the workforce come and are determined by the impact of residence. In the estimation of the income effect, the use of the variable "the total income of the household" leads to an internal problem from an econometric point of view. In this framework, in addition to the traditional probite models in the study, the probite model forecasts established through the vehicle variable technique are obtained. The influence of women’s participation in labor; the impact of child ownership, age and household income is negative while the impact of college graduation is positive.
In this study, factors affecting women's labor force participation decisions are examined using TURKSTAT’s household budget surveys. Logit and probit model estimators obtained on; education level, age, number of babies and household income. As is known from the economic theory, individual preferences between labour force participation and leisure are determined by the income and substitution effect. To estimate the income effect, using "household income" causes the problem of endogeneity in econometrics. In this context, in addition to traditional models, the probit model estimators based on instrumental variable technique are achieved in the study. On the labor force participation of women; while the impact of baby ownership, age and household income are negative, the effect of university graduation is positive.
