Digital technologies, the Covid crisis, rising incomes, and changing work attitudes all contribute to the recent increase in the importance of certain nonmonetary aspects of work - most prominently flexibility and work meaning. What does this mean for gender differences on the labor market and for the future of work? MORETHANMONEY will integrate flexibility and work meaning into the theory and empirics of family labor supply and retirement choices. In three subprojects, I will develop models that combine behavioral, labor and family economics, collect unique data sets that combine administrative, survey and experimental parts, and use structural and reduced-form estimation techniques.
