Thesis (Ph.D.)--The University of Chicago, 2003.

This dissertation attempts to quantify the degree to which households are forward-looking, and finds some surprising results. The first chapter uses group means computed from twenty years (1980--1999) of the highest quality survey data available on U.S. households to show a strong and robust relation between consumption growth and subsequent realizations of income growth. Consumption growth predicts multiple types of variation in income growth, including business cycle variation, as far as six years ahead. The cross-section of groups helps distinguish forward-looking explanations for the results from alternative explanations based on aggregate feedback, and allows examination of heterogeneity by age and education.

520 $a This dissertation attempts to quantify the degree to which households are forward-looking, and finds some surprising results. The first chapter uses group means computed from twenty years (1980--1999) of the highest quality survey data available on U.S. households to show a strong and robust relation between consumption growth and subsequent realizations of income growth. Consumption growth predicts multiple types of variation in income growth, including business cycle variation, as far as six years ahead. The cross-section of groups helps distinguish forward-looking explanations for the results from alternative explanations based on aggregate feedback, and allows examination of heterogeneity by age and education.
520 $a The second chapter studies the joint response of wives' leisure and consumption to innovations in current and expected future income, yielding three main contributions. First, the analysis provides a novel empirical characterization of income effects in a dynamic model of labor supply; indicating that wives' leisure responds not only to current household income but also to expected future income years ahead. Second, it derives and examines a stringent set of tests of household intertemporal optimization not been considered in prior work, tests that are not rejected on the paper's synthetic panel of group means. Third, the paper proposes a new strategy for estimating the elasticity of substitution for consumption, to be implemented in conjunction with estimates of the marginal rate of substitution between consumption and leisure. One set of these estimates centers around two-thirds, and another centers around unity.
