Productivity, welfare and reallocation: theory and firm-level evidence
Basu, Susanto; Pascali, Luigi; Schiantarelli, Fabio; … - 2009
We prove that the change in welfare of a representative consumer is summarized by the current and expected future … values of the standard Solow productivity residual. The equivalence holds if the representative household maximizes utility … while taking prices parametrically. This result justifies TFP as the right summary measure of welfare (even in situations …

Worker well-being before and during the COVID-19 restrictions : a longitudinal study in the UK
Pelly, Diane; Doyle, Orla; Daly, Michael; Delaney, Liam - 2021
The potential impact of COVID-19 restrictions on worker well-being is currently unknown. In this study we examine 15 well-being outcomes collected from 621 full-time workers assessed before (November, 2019 - February, 2020) and during (May-June, 2020) the COVID-19 pandemic. Fixed effects...

So Far so Good: Age, Happiness, and Relative Income
FitzRoy, Felix R.; Nolan, Michael A.; Steinhardt, Max F.; … - 2011
In a simple 2-period model of relative income under uncertainty, higher comparison income for the younger cohort can signal higher or lower expected lifetime relative income, and hence either increase or decrease well-being. With data from the German Socio-Economic Panel and the British...

Testing the tunnel effect : comparison, age and happiness in UK and German panels
FitzRoy, Felix R.; Nolan, Michael A.; Steinhardt, Max … - In: IZA journal of European Labor Studies 3 (2014) 24, pp. 1-30
In contrast to previous results combining all ages, we find positive effects of comparison income on happiness for the under 45s and negative effects for those over 45. In the UK, these coefficients are several times the magnitude of own income effects. In West Germany, they cancel out to give...

In contrast to previous results combining all ages we find positive effects of comparison income on happiness for the under 45s, and negative effects for those over 45. In the BHPS these coefficients are several times the magnitude of own income effects. In GSOEP they cancel to give no effect of...
