Abstract

This paper analyzes female happiness decision factor related with child care using the data of JPSC (Japanese Panel Survey of Consumers). JPSC is targeted for 20-40 females and has questions of subjective happiness and life satisfaction. We establish a hypothesis that subjective happiness is in a non pecuniary domain and life satisfaction is in pecuniary domain and analyze the effects of spouse, work, and number of children related to female happiness -- subjective happiness and life satisfaction -- using non-linear panel analysis. The results of this study are the followings: (1) income, consumption and marital status have significantly positive effects and age and work has negative effects to subjective happiness; (2) number of children has positive effect to subjective happiness, but negative to life satisfaction.
