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...

Cultural diversity – in various forms – has in recent years turned into a prominent and relevant research and policy issue. There is an avalanche of studies across many disciplines that measure and analyse cultural diversity and its impacts. Based on different perspectives and features of...

Meta-analytic methods have been widely applied to education, medicine, and the social sciences. Much of meta-analytic data are hierarchically structured since effect size estimates are nested within studies, and in turn studies can be nested within level-3 units such as laboratories or...

Multilevel models are widely used in education and social science research. However, the effects of omitting levels of the hierarchy on the variance decomposition and the clustering effects have not been well documented. This paper discusses how omitting one level in three-level models affects...

Estimation of this elasticity is of particular interest not only in its own …In this paper we estimate the elasticity of the labour supply to a firm, using data from the Household, Income and … immediately losing their workforce. This is in contrast to the perfectly competitive extreme, in which the elasticity is infinite …

Many countries face a continuing shortage in nurses' labour supply. Previous research suggests that nurses respond only weakly to changes in wages. We estimate a multi-sector model of nursing qualification holders' labour supply in different occupations. A structural approach allows us to model...

The aggregate Frisch elasticity of labor supply has played a key role in business cycle analysis. This paper develops a … Frisch elasticity and illustrate its main components: (i) the intensive and extensive adjustment of hours worked, (ii) the … panel data model of individual hours worked. Our estimated aggregate Frisch elasticity varies between .63 and .70. These …
