We show that the Roy model has more precise predictions about the self‐selection of migrants than previously realized … imply a stochastic dominance relationship between the earnings distributions of migrants and non-migrants. We use the Danish … emigrants in terms of pre-emigration earnings: the income distribution for the migrants almost stochastically dominates the …
