A parametric control function approach to estimating the returns to schooling in the absence of exclusion restrictions : an application to the NLSY

Farré, Lídia; Klein, Roger W.; Vella, Francis - 2010

An innovation which bypasses the need for instruments when estimating endogenous treatment effects is identification via conditional second moments. The most general of these approaches is Klein and Vella (2010) which models the conditional variances semiparametrically. While this is attractive,...

Cognitive performance and labor market outcomes

Lin, Dajun; Lutter, Randall W.; Ruhm, Christopher J. - 2016

We use information from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1979 (NLSY79) and supplementary data sources to examine how cognitive performance, measured at approximately the end of secondary schooling, is related to the labor market outcomes of 20 through 50 year olds. Our estimates control...

Decomposing real wage changes in the United States

Fernández-Val, Iván; Vuuren, Aico van; Vella, Francis - 2018

We employ CPS data to analyze the sources of hourly real wage changes in the United States for 1976 to 2016 at various quantiles of the wage distribution. We account for the selection bias from the annual hours of work decision by developing and implementing an estimator for nonseparable...
