Intergenerational mobility through the lens of the elderly
- The literature on intergenerational mobility for many countries in the world focus on household surveys that capture the education of parents and their children. While they pay particular attention to issues regarding co-residency of fathers and son, they are somewhat weaker in information on women: daughters who live with their in-laws as well as resident women outside the reproductive age group (15？49), for whom information on parents is typically missing.
- In this paper we examine how estimates from a nationally representative survey of the elderly in India (LASI)―that over-samples adults who are 45 years and above and contains information about their parents―compare with existing studies that provide analogous estimates. We find that while estimates using father-son pairs are similar to extant literature on India, we can provide robust estimates for pairs that involve women, as parents and daughters, due to a relatively larger sample size, especially for the period before 1970s.
- Thus, we contend that LASI can be especially useful for studying temporal changes in human capital investment in daughters relative to sons.
