The major contribution of this paper is finding a new and general approach to decomposing log-wage differentials when selection effects are present. We divide the observed log-wage differentials between two groups into 1) differentials in predicted log-wages computed using observed individual...

The major contribution of this paper is ending a new and flexible way to measure the effects of selection on log-wages. In this context, we offer a general approach to performing decomposition analysis when selection effects are present. We call the difference between unconditional and...
