要旨：This study investigates the impact of death in a household in suburban and rural areas of Thailand, in contrast to literature that often focuses on more developed societies with complete public insurance coverage. Relying on the assumption that the timing of death is random in old age, we implemented a staggered event study design and examined how households adapted to the loss of the head or the spouse of the head. After the death of their husbands, widows took over the household business, receiving support from children and relatives who moved in to assist. In contrast, widowers withdrew from the labor force after the death of their wives. Widow households also experienced a rise in gift income in the first year after death. However, there was no evidence of an increase in public transfers, suggesting that the main adjustment channels were through family and community support rather than public authorities.
