We present a sorting model in which workers with greater ability and greater risk tolerance move into performance pay … confirm testable implications drawn from our sorting model. First, prior to controlling for earnings, workers in performance …. While these findings support the sorting model, they would not be suggested by the classic agency model. …

We present a semiparametric method to estimate group-level dispersion, which is particularly effective in the presence of censored data. We apply this procedure to obtain measures of occupation-specific wage dispersion using top-coded administrative wage data from the German IAB Employment...
