Robustness of the Norwegian wage formation system and free EU labour movement : evidence from wage data for natives
Dapi, Bjorn; Nymoen, Ragnar; Sparrman, Victoria - 2019
Norway experienced a high immigration flow after the EEA directive in 2004 stating workers right to free movement within the European Union and EEA-countries. There is no clear consensus in the literature on how immigration affects native wages, but some studies using Norwegian micro data have...

International trade and unemployment : a quantitative framework ; conference paper
Heid, Benedikt; Larch, Mario - 2013
Quantifying the welfare effects of trade liberalization is a core issue in international trade. Existing frameworks assume perfect labor markets and therefore ignore the effects of aggregate employment changes for welfare. We develop a quantitative trade framework which explicitly models labor...

Generalized selection bias and the decomposition of wage differentials
Yun, Myeong-Su - 1999
) when the two expectations are measured using the estimates from the joint estimation of the whole model (log-wages and …-wages, where the deterministic component is computed using the estimates from the joint estimation. That is, the GSB is the … expectation of the residuals estimated from the joint estimation. It is appropriate to apply the Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition …

Average Gaps and Oaxaca–Blinder Decompositions : A Cautionary Tale About Regression Estimates of Racial Differences in Labor Market Outcomes
Słoczyński, Tymon - 2022
In this paper I demonstrate, both theoretically and empirically, that the interpretation of regression estimates of between-group differences in economic outcomes depends on the relative sizes of subpopulations under study. When the disadvantaged group is small, regression estimates are similar...

Robust estimation of wage dispersion with censored data : an application to occupational earnings risk and risk attitudes
Pollmann, Daniel; Dohmen, Thomas; Palm, Franz C. - 2013
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...

In this paper, the authors develop a new estimation method that is suitable for censored models with two high … and hence making it applicable to frameworks in which standard estimation techniques become unfeasible. The authors …

An alternative estimator for industrial gender wage gaps : a normalized regression approach
Yun, Myeong-Su; Lin, Eric S. - 2015 - Forthcoming in: Pacific Economic Review
Using normalized regression equations, we propose an alternative estimator of industrial gender wage gaps which is identified in the sense that it is invariant to the choice of an unobserved non-discriminatory wage structure, and to the choice of the reference groups of any categorical...
