First, the gender pay and commuting gaps come into existence at the same moment: when the first child is born. Second …, wage compensation for commuting is lower for women after the birth compared to men: about 3 − 4 percentage points of the …

This paper studies to what extent gender differences in commuting patterns explain the observed disparities between … husband and wife in relation to earnings and wages.

We examine the effect of commuting on labour supply patterns. A labour supply model is introduced which shows that … commuting distance increases daily workhours, whereas the effect on total labour supply is ambiguous. This paper addresses these … issues empirically using the socio-economic panel data for Germany between 1997 and 2007. Endogeneity of commuting distance …

In this paper, we construct commuters’ travel-time profiles, namely, the menu of travel times that each individual will likely face according to alternate trip timing choices, to measure congestion delays for morning commutes in California and explore a new trip scheduling pattern of commuters...

We investigate the sensitivity of consumer surplus estimates to parametric assumptions on individual preference heterogeneity in a discrete choice framework. We compare results from a parametric random coefficients logit model and a recently proposed nonparametric sieve estimator. In particular,...
