Abstract

This study tests the hypothesis that intrahousehold calorie allocation in rural West Java responds to differences in children's labor contributions to the household. The results support the hypothesis, and also suggest that male children's health is valued more highly by households in the surveyed village than that of female children even after current labor contributions are accounted for.
