Comment on education returns of wage earners and self-employed workers

Henrik Jordahl, Panu Poutvaara and Juha Tuomala

In a recent paper, García-Mainar and Montuenga-Gómez (2005) apply the generalized IV model of Hausman and Taylor to estimate education returns of wage earners and the self-employed in Portugal and in Spain. Our examination reveals several problems which relate to the validity and documentation of the instrumental variables, as well as the robustness of the results. -- Education ; Entrepreneurship ; Human capital ; EGIV estimator
