Abstract: We consider a dynamic model for the participation decision to thelabour market of the women who live in couple.We estimate a dynamicprobit model with random effects using the french part of the Europanel,for the period going from 1994 to 2001 and using a simulatedmaximum likehood estimator. These estimates are made on a monthlyand an annual basis taking into account the initial conditions problem.The decision of participation of the women who live in couple dependson the individual characteristics and is characterized by a significantstate dependence. The unobserved components of heterogeneity play acentral role in the dynamics of the participation to the labour market.This unobserved heterogeneity reflect differences in the preferences relativeto the arbitrage between consumption and leisure. We find thatthe error terms of the model are negatively correlated. Moreover, weshow the importance of the permanent income component in the participationdecision.
