标题： Intimate partner violence and women's economic preferences

摘要： 三分之一的全球女性遭受亲密伴侣暴力（IPV），然而人们对这种创伤如何影响经济决策知之甚少。 我们提供了因果证据，表明IPV影响女性的时间偏好——这是储蓄、投资和劳动力供给模型中的一个关键参数。 我们结合两种实证策略，使用四个不同的数据集。 首先，在埃塞俄比亚的两项随机回忆实验中，我们将女性随机分配在诱发其跨期选择之前回忆特定的虐待行为。 被提示回忆IPV的有IPV经历的女性表现出比其他类似但未被提示的女性显著更高的不耐烦。 其次，我们利用由两项随机干预产生的IPV外生减少——一项涉及现金转移，另一项是心理治疗——并使用治疗分配作为IPV暴露的工具变量。 由于治疗而经历IPV减少的女性表现出更耐心的时间偏好。 这些结果共同提供了连贯且新颖的因果证据，表明接触IPV会使个体更加重视当前而忽视未来。 这一证据表明，暴力可能通过心理渠道持续造成经济劣势，并限制女性采取需要长期规划的行动能力——例如储蓄、投资或离开虐待关系。 显示英文摘要

摘要： One in three women globally experiences intimate partner violence (IPV), yet little is known about how such trauma affects economic decision-making. We provide causal evidence that IPV influences women's time preferences - a key parameter in models of savings, investment, and labor supply. We combine two empirical strategies using four distinct datasets. First, in two randomized recall experiments in Ethiopia, we randomly assigned women to recall specific acts of abuse before eliciting their intertemporal choices. Women with IPV experiences prompted to recall IPV display significantly greater impatience than otherwise similar women who are not prompted. Second, we exploit exogenous reductions in IPV generated by two randomized interventions - one involving cash transfers, the other psychotherapy - and use treatment assignment as an instrument for IPV exposure. Women who experience reduced IPV as a result of treatment exhibit more patient time preferences. Together, these results provide consistent, novel causal evidence that exposure to IPV induces individuals to discount the future more heavily. This evidence suggests a psychological channel through which violence can perpetuate economic disadvantage and constrain women's ability to take actions - such as saving, investing, or exiting abusive relationships - that require planning over time.
