We apply a recently proposed method to disentangle unobserved heterogeneity from risk in returns to education. We replicate the original study on US men and extend to US women, UK men and German men. Most original results are not robust. A college education cannot universally be considered an...

In recent years a number of panel estimators have been suggested for sample selection models, where both the selection equation and the equation of interest contain individual effects which are correlated with the explanatory variables. We review and compare some of these estimators, and apply...

This paper investigates the determinants of migrants' financial transfers to their home country using German data.A double-hurdle model is applied to analyze the determinants of the propensity to send transfers abroad and the amount of transfers.The findings reveal that return intentions...

Wir analysieren die Determinanten der Zuschauernachfrage in der Fußballbundesliga in den Saisonen 2001/02 bis 2004/05, d.h. für insgesamt 1224 Spiele. Dafür spezifizieren wir ein ökonometrisches Modell, das die begrenzte Kapazität der Stadien und Heteroskedastizität berücksichtigt. Es...
