- Latin American countries, panel 1987–2014. Adults aged 25–54
- Fixed effects (by country) OLS regressions. Unbalanced panel of 18 countries. Dependent variable: in columns 1 and 2 (3 and 4) is female (male) labor force participation as percentage of women (men) aged 25–54; in columns 5 and 6 is the LFP ratio (men/women) expressed in percentage. Log per capita GDP is the logarithm of real gross domestic product per capita. Cyclical and trend components of GDP are obtained by applying the Hodrick-Prescott filter to the log of per capita GDP. For detailed data definitions and sources, see Table 10 in the Appendix. Robust standard errors clustered by country in parentheses. ***Significant at 1% level, **5%, *10%
