The evolution of inequality of opportunity in Germany : a machine learning approach

Brunori, Paolo; Neidhöfer, Guido - 2020

We show that measures of inequality of opportunity (IOP) fully consistent with Roemer (1998)’s IOP theory can be … Germany during the last three decades. Hereby, we take advantage of information contained in 25 waves of the Socio …-Economic Panel. Our analysis shows that in Germany IOP declined immediately after reunification, increased in the first decade of the …

Do minimum wage hikes lead to employment destruction? : evidence from a regression discontinuity design in Argentina

Abbate, Nicolás; Jiménez, Bruno - 2023

In this paper, we evaluate a series of minimum wage hikes implemented in the early XXIst century in Argentina using administrative records of registered employment. We identify the effect of raising the minimum wage on job separations via a regression discontinuity design. More specifically, we...

Tests for normality in linear panel data models

Alejo, Javier; Galvão Júnior, Antônio Fialho; … - 2015

A new Stata command, xtsktest, is proposed to explore non-normalities in linear panel data models. The tests explore skewness and excess kurtosis allowing researchers to identify departures away from gaussianity in both error components of a standard panel regression, separately or jointly. The...
