This article discusses the effects of remittances on labor force participation. Remittances reduce the probability of participation in the labor market because they increase the relative price of leisure. Using data from the national household survey held in Colombia in 2008, we found that...

This article shows how to construct a likelihood for a general class of censoring problems. This likelihood is proven to be valid, i.e. its maximiser is consistent and the respective root-n estimator is asymptotically efficient and normally distributed under regularity conditions. The method...

This article considers a wide class of censoring problems and presents a construction rule for an objective function. This objective function generalises the ordinary likelihood as well as particular ?likelihoods? used for estimation in several censoring models. Under regularity conditions the...
