Even if parents are inequality averse, they may still choose to invest more in non-disabled children than in disabled children if there are additional costs of parental inputs associated with disability. I show that variation in family size and children's disabilities can be used to infer whether parents are averse to inequality exploiting the fact that parents of only children cannot possibly exhibit inequality aversion. Using Mexican cross-sectional data, I show that equality is important for parental investments in education.38 p.application/pdfeng(c) The University of Chicago Press, 2023Recursos humansCapital social (Economia)ParesSociologia de la discapacitatInfants amb discapacitatHuman capitalCapital stockParentsSociology of disabilityChildren with disabilitiesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article7254512023-06-19info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
