Shocks to Parent Employment and the Impacts on College Enrollment Decision in Urban China Abstract: In this paper we employ urban household data collected by Institute of Population and Labor Economics to present the evidence of shocks to parent employment on the college enrollment decision of kids.We provide background on China. s economic restructuring and shocks to parent employment, discuss the higher education system in China, and review recent reforms affecting both the capacity and financing of post- secondary institutions. By carefully controlling for the unobserved heterogeneity, we use a linear probability model to find out that a father. s loss of employment during the year prior to college attendance does indeed have a negative impact on probability of college enrollment and the magnitude of effect is about 30%.
