Heterogeneity in Human Capital Investments: High School Curriculum, College Major, and Careers
Altonji, Joseph G.; Meghir, Costas; Blom, Erica - National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) - 2012
Motivated by the large differences in labor market outcomes across college majors, we survey the literature on the demand for and return to high school and post-secondary education by field of study. We combine elements from several papers to provide a dynamic model of education and occupation...

Wages and Informality in Developing Countries
Meghir, Costas; Narita, Renata; Robin, Jean-Marc - National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) - 2012
It is often argued that informal labor markets in developing countries promote growth by reducing the impact of regulation. On the other hand informality may reduce the amount of social protection offered to workers. We extend the wage-posting framework of Burdett and Mortensen (1998) to allow...

Female Labor Supply, Human Capital and Welfare Reform
Blundell, Richard; Dias, Monica Costa; Meghir, Costas; … - Cowles Foundation for Research in Economics, Yale University - 2013
We consider the impact of Tax credits and income support programs on female education choice, employment, hours and human capital accumulation over the life-cycle. We thus analyze both the short run incentive effects and the longer run implications of such programs. By allowing for risk aversion...
