Cappellari, Lorenzo; Castelnovo, Paolo; Checchi, Daniele; … - 2016

We use OECD-PIAAC data to estimate the earnings effects of both years of education and of numerical skills. Our identification strategy exploits differential exposure to educational reforms across birth cohorts and countries. We find that education has the strongest earnings effect. A one...

Parental assortative mating and the intergenerational transmission of human capital

Bingley, Paul; Cappellari, Lorenzo; Tatsiramos, Konstantinos - 2021

We study the contribution of parental similarity in schooling levels to the intergenerational transmission of educational attainment. We develop an empirical model for educational correlations within the family in which parental sorting can translate into intergenerational transmission, or...

Parents, siblings and schoolmates

Bertoni, Marco; Brunello, Giorgio; Cappellari, Lorenzo - 2018

We investigate whether the effects of schoolmates' gender and average parental education on educational achievement, employment and earnings vary with individual family characteristics such as the gender of siblings and own parental education. We find that the benefits from exposure to...

Workers, firms and life-cycle wage dynamics

Bingley, Paul; Cappellari, Lorenzo - 2018

Studies of individual wage dynamics typically ignore firm heterogeneity, whereas decompositions of earnings into worker and firm effects abstract from life-cycle considerations. We study firm effects in individual wage dynamics using administrative data on the population of Italian employers and...

Linguistic skills and the intergenerational transmission of language

Caminal, Ramón; Cappellari, Lorenzo; Di Paolo, Antonio - 2018

We investigate the pattern of intergenerational transmission of language in a bilingual society. We consider the case of Catalonia, where the two main speech communities, Spanish and Catalan, are of similar sizes, both languages are official, and each one enjoys the protection of a different...

Bilingual Schooling and Earnings: Evidence from a Language-in-Education Reform

Cappellari, Lorenzo; Di Paolo, Antonio - 2015

We exploit the 1983 language-in-education reform that introduced Catalan alongside Spanish as medium of instruction in Catalan schools to estimate the labour market value of bilingual education. Identification is achieved in a difference-in-differences framework exploiting variation in exposure...

Killer acquisitions and beyond: Policy effects on innovation strategies

Letina, Igor; Schmutzler, Armin; Seibel, Regina - 2020

This paper provides a theory of strategic innovation project choice by incumbents and start-ups. We show that … prohibiting killer acquisitions strictly reduces the variety of innovation projects. By contrast, we find that prohibiting other … acquisitions only has a weakly negative innovation effect, and we provide conditions under which the effect is zero. Furthermore …
