The Quantity-Quality Transition of Children: Evidence from the Philippines

This study looked at the quantity-quality transition of children in the Philippines. Quantity-quality transition is the decline in lifetime fertility of women while increasing human capital investment per child. Using data from the 2010 Labor Force Survey (LFS), fertility and child-completed schooling models using Ordinary Least Squares (OLS), Ordered-Probit, and Probit were constructed to show the quantity-quality transition. The transition implies both slower rates of labor force growth and higher levels of human capital per worker, fundamental components of economic development. The level of education of mothers and fathers, place of residence, and household income were the household variables of interest used to influence the transition. Among the variables considered, mother’s education provides the most convincing evidence of the quantityquality transition of children in the Philippines.
