Simulation Estimation of Two-tiered Dynamic Panel Tobit Models with an Applic...
We find that the empirical results reported in Chang (Journal of Applied Econometrics 2011; 26(5): 854-871) are contingent on the specification of the model. The use of... -
Labor Supply as a Choice Among Latent Jobs: Unobserved Heterogeneity and Iden...
This paper discusses aspects of a modeling framework in which the notion of job choice is fundamental. In this framework, workers are assumed to have preferences over latent job... -
THE EFFECTS OF EXPANDING THE GENEROSITY OF THE STATUTORY SICKNESS INSURANCE S...
This article evaluates an expansion of employer-mandated sick leave from 80% to 100% of forgone gross wages in Germany. We employ and compare parametric difference-in-difference... -
Simulation estimation of two-tiered dynamic panel Tobit models with an applic...
In this paper a computationally practical simulation estimator is proposed for the two-tiered dynamic panel Tobit model originally developed by Cragg (1971). The log-likelihood... -
Fertility and female employment dynamics in Europe: the effect of using alter...
We investigate the direct and long-run effects of fertility on employment in Europe, estimating dynamic models of labor supply under different assumptions regarding the... -
Health and work of the elderly: subjective health measures, reporting errors ...
This paper explores the interrelation between health and work decisions of older workers. For this, two issues are of relevance. Firstly, health and work may be endogenously... -
Small-sample bias in synthetic cohort models of labor supply (replication data)
This paper investigates small-sample biases in synthetic cohort models (repeated cross-sectional data grouped at the cohort and year level) in the context of a female labor... -
Unemployment and liquidity constraints (replication data)
We present a dynamic framework for the interaction between borrowing (liquidity) constraints and deviations of actual hours from desired hours, both measured by discrete-valued... -
Health insurance and retirement of married couples (replication data)
Most health insurance in the USA is provided by employers until eligibility for public health insurance (Medicare) begins at age 65. Retiring before 65 exposes workers who lack... -
Sectoral labour supply, choice restrictions and functional form (replication ...
In this paper we discuss a general framework for analysing labour supply behaviour in the presence of complicated budget and quantity constraints, of which some are unobserved.... -
Semiparametric three-step estimation methods for simultaneous equation system...
This paper proposes a new method for estimating a structural model of labour supply in which hours of work depend on (log) wages and the wage rate is considered endogenous. The... -
Serially correlated variables in dynamic, discrete choice models (replication...
This paper discusses the problems that are encountered when dynamic, discrete choice models are specified with continuous, serially correlated state variables. A variety of... -
Identifying interdependent behaviour in an empirical model of labour supply (...
In this paper we test a particular form of interdependent behaviour, namely the hypothesis that individuals' choices of hours of work are influenced by the average hours of work... -
Labour supply in Italy: an empirical analysis of joint household decisions, w...
This study applies an econometric framework which allows for complex non-convex budget sets, highly non-linear labour supply curves and imperfect markets with institutional... -
A comparison of parametric and semiparametric estimates of the effect of spou...
Health insurance in the USA for most of the non-aged population is provided as a fringe benefit that is received by an adult family member as part of his or her compensation... -
Testing the predictive value of subjective labour supply data (replication data)
Empirical implementation of labour supply theories is usually based on actual hours of work. This requires strong assumptions on the impact of labour demand. To avoid these...
