Abstract:
Abstract Spousal caregivers to older adults may be at increased risks of negative health outcomes because they are also dealing with their own aging and health issues. Estimating the impacts of caregiving without controlling for caregivers’ own aging and aging-related health decline could exaggerate the negative health consequences of caregiving, whereas focusing on caregivers only could face the risk of selection bias where healthier individuals enter and/or remain in caregiving. In this study, we used coarsened exact matching to compare outcomes in wellbeing between spousal caregivers and spousal non-caregivers. Pooled panel data from Wave 8 to Wave 13 in the Health and Retirement Study was utilized with two consecutive waves of data for each spousal caregiver. The sample included 203,162 person-wave observations from 5,162 unique individuals, among whom 3,577 were spousal caregivers. Variables used for matching were classified into three categories: care obligations, the willingness to provide care, and the ability to provide care. Outcome of interest was depressive symptoms measured by CES-D 8. A total of 2,741 (81.01%) spousal caregivers were matched with 18,043 observations of spousal non-caregivers. Regression analysis indicated that being a spousal caregiver was statistically significantly associated with a 0.27 unit increase in depressive symptoms in the subsequent wave, after controlling for other potentially confounding variables such as caregiver’s race/ethnicity, length of current marriage, etc. Our results highlighted the elevated needs to address mental health among spousal caregivers, and indicated that long-term care program and policy should take into consideration the mental health among spousal caregivers.

Abstract:
Background. In countries without a national organization for retrieval and distribution of organs of the deceased donors, problem of organ shortage is still not resolved. In order to increase the number of kidney transplantations we started with the program of living unrelated - spousal donors. The aim of this study was to compare treatment outcome and renal graft function in patients receiving the graft from spousal and those receiving ghe graft from living related donors. Method. We retrospectively identified 14 patients who received renal allograft from spousal donors between 1996 and 2009 (group I). The control group consisted of 14 patients who got graft from related donor retrieved from the database and matched than with respect to sex, age, kidney disease, immunological and viral pretransplant status, the initial method of the end stage renal disease treatment and ABO compatibility. In the follow-up period of 41 ? 38 months we recorded immunosuppressive therapy, surgical complications, episodes of acute rejection, CMV infection and graft function, assessed by serum creatinine levels at the beginning and in the end of the follow-up period. All patients had pretransplant negative cross-match. In ABO incompatible patients pretransplant isoagglutinine titer was zero. Results. The patients with a spousal donor had worse HLA matching. There were no significant differences between the groups in surgical, infective, immunological complications and graft function. Two patients from the group I returned to hemodialysis after 82 and 22 months due to serious comorbidities. Conclusion. In spite of the worse HLA matching, graft survival and function of renal grafts from spousal donors were as good as those retrieved from related donors.

Abstract:
We propose a novel nonparametric method to empirically identify economies of scale in multiperson household consumption. We assume consumption technologies that define the public and private nature of expenditures through Barten scales. Our method (solely) exploits preference information revealed by a cross-section of household observations while accounting for fully unobserved preference heterogeneity. An application to data drawn from the US Panel Study of Income Dynamics shows that the method yields informative results on scale economies and intrahousehold allocation patterns. In addition, it allows us to define individual compensation schemes required to preserve the same consumption level in case of marriage dissolution or spousal death.

Abstract:
Introduction: Studies have shown that a compatible human leukocyte antigen (HLA) match can confer a favourable effect on graft outcomes. We examined the outcomes of HLA matching in renal transplant donors in Malaysia. Materials and Methods: A total of 140 patients who had compatible ABO blood type with negative T-cell lymphocytotoxicity crossmatch were included in the study and 25% of them were spousal transplant donors. No remarkable differences in acute rejection rate, graft survival, patient survival and serum creatinine level were observed between the spousal and living-related donor groups. Results: The spousal donor group had a higher degree of HLA mismatch than the living-related donor group. HLA-A mismatch was associated with increased rejection risk at 6 months (odds ratio [OR], 2.75; P = 0.04), 1 year (OR, 2.54; P = 0.03) and 3 years (OR, 3.69; P = 0.001). It was also observed in the deleterious effects of HLA-B and HLA-DQ loci when the number of antigen mismatches increased. The risk was 7 times higher in patients with ≥1 mismatch at HLA-A, HLA-B and HLA-DR loci than those who did not have a mismatch at these loci at 6 months (P = 0.01), 1 year (P = 0.03) and 3 years (P = 0.003). Conclusion: A good match for HLA-A, HLA-B, HLA-DR and HLA-DQ can prevent acute rejection risk in renal transplant patients. Consequently, spousal donor transplants could be a safe intervention in renal patients. Key words: Graft survival, Human leukocyte antigen incompatibility, Immunosuppressant, Patient survival

Abstract:
Abstract Background Studies have suggested older spouse caregivers experience burden-related adverse health outcomes compared to non-caregivers. However, potential causal inferences remain unclear. This study examined the effect of caregiving on insomnia symptoms of spouse caregivers over time, compared to non-caregiver samples matched by propensity score (PS). Methods Longitudinal data from the Health and Retirement Study from 2006 to 2018 were used. Caregivers (Nf403) were respondents (aged 50+) who assisted their heterosexual spouses in performing (instrumental) activities of daily living at baseline. PS-matching was used to match non-caregivers based on sociodemographic, household, and health-related characteristics. Symptoms of insomnia were evaluated every four years for both groups. The link between caregiver status and number/severity of insomnia symptoms over time was assessed using a Poisson mixed-effects model. Results The propensity-matched sample achieved a satisfactory covariate balance. There was no statistically significant difference between caregivers and non-caregivers in the number of insomnia symptoms at baseline (β_caregiver=0.092, 95% CI = -0.017, 0.201). However, caregivers reported a slower increase in insomnia symptoms compared to non-caregivers (β_caregiver×time = -0.012, 95% CI = -0.021, -0.003). Results were cross-validated in modelling the severity of insomnia symptoms. Conclusion There is weak evidence that a spouse’s role as a caregiver may be beneficial for his/her sleep health over time. The negative effects of caring on older individuals’ sleep may vary depending on the caregiving context. The potential health benefits of informal spousal caring and their underlying mechanisms warrant further investigations.

Abstract:
We study unemployment insurance in a framework where the main source of heterogeneity among agents is the type of household they live in: some agents live alone while others live with their spouses as a family. Our exercise is motivated by the fact that married individuals can rely on spousal income to smooth labor market shocks, while singles cannot. We extend a version of the standard incomplete‐markets model to include two‐agent households and calibrate it to the US economy with special emphasis on matching differences in labor market transitions across gender and marital status as well as aggregate wealth moments. Our central finding is that changes to the current unemployment insurance program are valued differently by married and single households. In particular, a more generous unemployment insurance reduces the welfare of married households significantly more than that of singles and vice versa. We show that this result is driven by the amount of self‐insurance existing in married households, and thus, we highlight the interplay between self‐ and government‐provided insurance and its implication for policy.

Abstract:
AbstractVerses referring to people having a “purified spouse” in heaven are usually assumed to be addressing men only because of a fundamentally incorrect association of purity with virginity, thereby attaching it to women. Yet the ubiquitous concept of “purity” in the Qur’an is the far broader one of righteousness and is never used to refer to virginity. Men and women are both promised “purified spouses/mates”, whether one’s righteous spouse from one’s time on earth or a spouse from among heavenly beings referred to as hoor or hooris. Virginity as relating to being born again and made equally and eternally young in Paradise applies to both women and men, who are said to be matching qualitatively as couples. Moreover, the myth of “72 virgins in Paradise” for a (presumably male) martyr is just that, appearing nowhere in the Qur’an.

Abstract:
This chapter considers matching by categories, beginning with a discussion of a specific but empirically very relevant family of models in order to provide a richer representation of heterogeneity between individuals that would account not only for economic aspects such as income or education, as well as more subjective (and less easily observable) ones, such as idiosyncratic preferences for marriage in general and for specific types of spouses in particular. The chapter explores a simple model that describes matching on income or education, the separability assumption, how separability can be justified, and the dual structure under separability. It also provides an overview of the Choo-Siow model, focusing on its basic structure, the matching function, heteroskedasticity, comparative statics, testability and identifiability, and the Galichon and Salanié's cupid framework as an extension of the model.

Abstract:
Abstract This chapter describes how in Cambodia, the communist Khmer Rouge regime, which was responsible for widespread death and destruction, also banned all prerevolutionary wedding traditions. The state organization (Angkar) took over the spouse-matching process. Given the importance of marriage in Cambodian society for personal and family networks, the authors find that the Khmer Rouge regime’s attempt to alter wedding traditions profoundly affected the country’s social fabric. Despite the unorthodox marriage practices during the Khmer Rouge, many of these couples stayed together after the regime’s collapse. Drawing upon 16 months of ethnographic fieldwork among survivors of forced marriage and their families, the authors examine how these socially and spiritually problematic unions affected the children born as a result of the arrangements. Within these complicated family environments, children of forced marriages often feel pressure to both manage their parents’ emotions and to help compensate for what their parents lost during decades of violence and turmoil.
