- Y 2009-2013 Only Y Y All singleton, second births occurring to white, married women aged 20-45 are included. F-test of age variables refers to the test that the coefficients on mother’s age and age squared are jointly equal to zero. The critical value for rejection of joint insignificance is displayed below the F-statistic. Leamer critical values refer to Leamer/Schwartz/Deaton critical 5% values adjusted for sample size. The Leamer critical value for a t-statistic is 3.882 in columns 1-3 and 3.820 in columns 4 and 5. Optimal age calculates the turning point of the mother’s age quadratic. Heteroscedasticity robust standard errors are reported in parentheses. ‡ Significance based on Leamer criterion at 5%.
