Averaging methods are routinely used in order to limit biases resulting from the mismeasurement of permanent incomes. The Solon/Zimmerman estimator regresses a single-year measurement of the child's resources on a T-period average of the parents' income while the Behrman/Taubman estimator...

The techniques of simple random sampling are seldom appropriate in the empirical analysis of income distributions. Various types of weighting schemes are usually required either from the point of view of welfare-economic considerations (the mapping of household/family distributions into...

This paper is concerned with the practical problem of conducting inference in a vector time series setting when the … data is unbalanced or incomplete. In this case, one can work only with the common sample, to which a standard HAC/Bootstrap … theory applies, but at the expense of throwing away data and perhaps losing efficiency. An alternative is to use some sort of …
