Dynamics of earnings and hourly wages in Germany

Myck, Michał; Ochmann, Richard; Qari, Salmai - 2009

There is by now a lot of evidence showing a sharp increase in cross-sectional wage and earnings inequality during the 2000s in Germany. Our study is the first to decompose this cross-sectional variance into its permanent and transitory parts for years beyond 2000. Using data from the German...

On the Use of Formative Measurement Specifications in Structural Equation Modeling: A Monte Carlo Simulation Study to Compare Covariance-Based and Partial Least Squares Model Estimation Methodologies

Ringle, Christian M.; Götz, Oliver; Wetzels, Martin; … - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2009

The broader goal of this paper is to provide social researchers with some analytical guidelines when investigating structural equation models (SEM) with predominantly a formative specification. This research is the first to investigate the robustness and precision of parameter estimates of a...

Normal versus Noncentral Chi-square Asymptotics of Misspecified Models

Chun, So Yeon; Alexander, Shapiro - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2009

The noncentral chi-square approximation of the distribution of the likelihood ratio (LR) test statistic is a critical part of the methodology in structural equations modeling (SEM). Recently, it was argued by some authors that in certain situations normal distributions may give a better...

Testing the equality of mean vectors for paired doubly multivariate observations in blocked compound symmetric covariance matrix setup

Roy, Anuradha; Leiva, Ricardo; Žežula, Ivan; Klein, Daniel - In: Journal of Multivariate Analysis 137 (2015) C, pp. 50-60

In this article we develop a test statistic for testing the equality of mean vectors for paired doubly multivariate observations with q response variables and u sites in blocked compound symmetric covariance matrix setting. We obtain a natural extension of the Hotelling’s T2 statistic, the...
