Is the correlation in welfare participation across generations spurious?

Article Abstract:

The observed correlation in welfare participation between mothers and their daughters is examined as to whether it reflects causal links or correlated unobservables. The study was undertaken to analyze whether the reduction of one generation's welfare participation has a bearing on the next generation. Through the Panel Study of Income Dynamics, it was revealed that correlated unobservables are significant in explaining the intergenerational correlation in welfare participation among blacks but not non-blacks.
