内容摘要

Evolutionary theory suggests that the relationship between social status and fertility will be positive, although empirical studies often show the opposite is true in developed, low fertility societies such as the U.S. However, evolutionary theory also suggests that the relationship between status and fertility will differ for men and women, so the relationship between status and fertility should be examined separately for men and women. This is something few empirical studies do.  Studies that do examine the relationship separately often find that some measures of socioeconomic status, income in particular, are positively associated with fertility for men only. There are few studies of the relationship between wealth and fertility for men and women, and few studies that attempt to disentangle the effects of personal income, family income, personal wealth, and family wealth, on fertility.

This paper examines the association of personal and family income and wealth with fertility and number of child bearing unions for men and women using newly released data from the 2014 wave of the Survey of Income and Program Participation by the U.S. Census that contains the first national measures of complete male and female fertility as well as measures of multi-partner fertility. Results show that personal income (net of other family income and wealth) is positively associated with total fertility and number of child bearing unions for men and is negatively associated with total fertility and number of child bearing unions for women. Family income (net of personal income and wealth) is positively associated with total fertility for women only. For both men and women, net of personal and family income, personal and household net worth are negatively associated with total fertility.
