Treatment evaluation with multiple outcome periods under endogeneity and attrition

Frölich, Markus; Huber, Martin - 2014

This paper develops a nonparametric methodology for treatment evaluation with multiple outcome periods under treatment endogeneity and missing outcomes. We use instrumental variables, pre-treatment characteristics, and short-term (or intermediate) outcomes to identify the average treatment...

When is the best time to give birth?

Frühwirth-Schnatter, Sylvia; Pamminger, Christoph; … - 2014

Using Bayesian Markov chain clustering analysis we investigate career paths of Austrian women after their first birth. This data-driven method allows characterizing long-term career paths of mothers over up to 19 years by transitions between parental leave, non-employment and different forms of...

The inequality-growth plateau

Henderson, Daniel J.; Qian, Junhui; Wang, Le - 2015

We examine the (potentially nonlinear) relationship between inequality and growth using a method which does not require an a priori assumption on the underlying functional form. This approach reveals a plateau completely missed by commonly used (nonlinear) parametric approaches - the economy...

Wage decompositions using panel data sample selection correction

Oaxaca, Ronald L.; Choe, Chung - 2016

This paper analyzes wage decomposition methodology in the context of panel data sample selection embedded in a … correlated random effects setting. Identification issues unique to panel data are examined for their implications for wage … decompositions. As an empirical example, we apply our methodology to German Socio-Economic Panel (GSOEP) data with which we …

The three i's of public schools : irrelevant inputs, insufficient resources and inefficiency

Henderson, Daniel J.; Simar, Léopold; Wang, Le - 2016

We examine the educational production function and efficiency of public school districts in Illinois. Using nonparametric kernel methods, we find that most traditional schooling inputs are irrelevant in determining test scores (even in a very general setting). Property tax caps are the only...

How much can we trust causal interpretations of fixed-effects estimators in the context of criminality?

Bjerk, David - 2009

Researchers are often interested in estimating the causal effect of some treatment on individual criminality. For example, two recent relatively prominent papers have attempted to estimate the respective direct effects of marriage and gang participation on individual criminal activity. One...
