Exploring the puzzle of human reproduction : register data based evidence from France and Germany
Lipowski, Cäcilia; Wilke, Ralf A.; Koebel, Bertrand M. - 2020
analyse and directly compare fertility patterns in two major European economies over a period of 15 years. Strong evidence is … found that opportunity costs play a role in fertility decisions, and for a positive income effect for females with high … earnings. Females in Germany adapt their fertility behaviour more strongly in response to economic incentives than their …

Generic inference on quantile and quantile effect functions for discrete outcomes
Chernozhukov, Victor; Fernández-Val, Iván; Melly, Blaise - 2016
This paper provides a method to construct simultaneous confidence bands for quantile and quantile effect functions for possibly discrete or mixed discrete-continuous random variables. The construction is generic and does not depend on the nature of the underlying problem. It works in conjunction...

Multi-destination and multi-purpose trip effects in the analysis of the demand for trips to a remote recreational site
Martínez-Espiñeira, Roberto; Amoako-Tuffour, Joe - 2008
One of the basic assumptions of the travel cost method for recreational demand analysis is that the travel cost is always incurred for a single purpose recreational trip. Several studies have skirted around the issue with simplifying assumptions and dropping observations considered as...
