The evolution of inequality in education trajectories and graduation outcomes in the US
Belzil, Christian; Hansen, Jörgen; Liu, Xingfei - 2022
Longitudinal Survey of Youths which we follow from 16 to 28. We discuss the evolution of family income and ability effects where … component correlated with family income and background variables. We find that the individual cognitive-technical ability … differential prevailing at 16 was increasing with income in the early 80's but much less so in the early 2000's. We find no …

Earnings dispersion, risk aversion and eduation
Belzil, Christian; Hansen, Jörgen - 2002
We estimate a dynamic programming model of schooling decisions in which the degree of risk aversion can be inferred from schooling decisions. In our model, individuals are heterogeneous with respect to school and market abilities but homogeneous with respect to the degree of risk aversion. We...

Estimating complementarity between education and training
Belzil, Christian (contributor); Hansen, Jörgen (contributor) - 2008
In this paper, we formulate and estimate a structural model of post-schooling training that explicitly allows for possible complementarity between initial schooling levels and returns to training. Precisely, the wage outcome equation depends on accumulated schooling and on the incidence of...

The return to schooling in structural dynamic models : a survey
Belzil, Christian (contributor) - 2006
This paper contains a survey of the recent literature devoted to the returns to schooling within a dynamic structural framework. I present a historical perspective on the evolution of the literature, from early static models set in a selectivity framework (Willis and Rosen, 1979) to the recent...

The distinction between dictatorial and incentive policy interventions and its implication for IV estimation
Belzil, Christian; Hansen, Jörgen - 2010
We investigate if, and under which conditions, the distinction between dictatorial and incentive-based policy interventions affects the capacity of Instrument Variable (IV) methods to estimate the relevant treatment effect parameter of an outcome equation. The analysis is set in a non-trivial...
