Abstract: In this paper, we estimate the impact of a non-contributory pension, in operation at the federal level between 2007 and 2012, on the subjective wellbeing of older adults. Our results suggest that, on average, this pension had a positive, and statistically significant, effect on the subjective wellbeing of older women, but not on that of older men. However, a heterogeneous impact analysis reveals that there are positive impacts of this pension for men who speak and indigenous language, and that the positive impacts are more pronounced for older women without primary education.
