Paul Schultz has researched Developing country in several fields, including Estimation and Human resources. His work on Efficiency wage as part of his general Wage study is frequently connected to Work, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.

His most cited work include:

  • School subsidies for the poor: evaluating the Mexican Progresa poverty program (763 citations)
  • Estimating a Household Production Function: Heterogeneity, the Demand for Health Inputs, and Their Effects on Birth Weight (630 citations)
  • Testing the Neoclassical Model of Family Labor Supply and Fertility (491 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

T. Paul Schultz mostly deals with Demographic economics, Fertility, Labour economics, Human capital and Wage. His Demographic economics research integrates issues from Economic growth, Subsidy and Distribution. His studies deal with areas such as Developing country, Child mortality, Socioeconomics, Family planning and Consumption as well as Fertility.

His Labour economics research includes elements of Human resources and Income distribution. His study in Human capital is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Public economics, Instrumental variable, Social determinants of health, Welfare and Investment. His Wage study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Productivity, Higher education, Estimation and Demographic transition.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Demographic economics (51.81%)
  • Fertility (39.16%)
  • Labour economics (43.37%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2005-2016)?

  • Human capital (43.37%)
  • Fertility (39.16%)
  • Demographic transition (11.45%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

T. Paul Schultz mainly focuses on Human capital, Fertility, Demographic transition, Family planning and Demographic economics. His Human capital research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Developing country, Labour economics and Welfare. The concepts of his Labour economics study are interwoven with issues in Incentive, Demography and Elderly health.

His study focuses on the intersection of Fertility and fields such as Socioeconomics with connections in the field of Child mortality. His Demographic transition research also works with subjects such as

  • Demographic dividend that connect with fields like Consumption and Wage,
  • Public economics that intertwine with fields like Health education, Health equity, Social determinants of health and Health policy. T. Paul Schultz combines topics linked to Instrumental variable with his work on Demographic economics.

Between 2005 and 2016, his most popular works were:

  • The economic consequences of reproductive health and family planning (185 citations)
  • Population Policies, Fertility, Women's Human Capital, and Child Quality * (87 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • World War II
  • Poverty
  • Macroeconomics

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Fertility, Family planning, Human capital, Welfare and Demographic economics. He works mostly in the field of Fertility, limiting it down to topics relating to Socioeconomics and, in certain cases, Child mortality, as a part of the same area of interest. In Family planning, T. Paul Schultz works on issues like Reproductive health, which are connected to Extreme poverty, Millennium Development Goals, Universal Primary Education and Birth rate.

His studies in Human capital integrate themes in fields like Health production and Per capita income. As a part of the same scientific family, T. Paul Schultz mostly works in the field of Demographic economics, focusing on Birth control and, on occasion, Instrumental variable. His study explores the link between Instrumental variable and topics such as Labour economics that cross with problems in Socioeconomic status, Globalization, Developing country and Productivity.
