The quiet revolution and the family: gender composition of tertiary education and early fertility patterns
Bičáková, Alena ; Jurajda, Štěpán
It is well known that highly 'female' fields of study in tertiary education are characterized by higher fertility. However, existing work does not disentangle the selection causality nexus. We use variation in gender composition of fields of study implied by the recent expansion of tertiary education in 19 European countries and a difference-in-differences research design, to show that the share of women on study peer groups affects early fertility levels only little.
