Abstract

© 2021 Board of Trustees of the Bulletin of Economic Research and John Wiley & Sons Ltd. Using an equilibrium model of interlinked frictional labor and marriage markets where men are regarded as “breadwinners,” we establish the existence of male marriage premium within a given productivity group, as well as a clear ranking of premia across different groups. We find supporting evidence using Chinese data.
