Maternal Education and Allocation of Time and Children's Health in South Korea.
This paper attempts to identify the mechanisms through which maternal education affects child health through her time allocation. Estimating a LISREL system of production functions for child health with the 1994 Korean household survey data, it is shown that a mother's education promotes her child's health by allocating a greater amount of time for leisure.
