What the Mean Measures of Mobility Miss: Learning About Intergenerational Mobility from Conditional Variance

Ahsan, Md. Nazmul; Emran, M. Shahe; Jiang, Hanchen; … - 2022

A large literature on intergenerational mobility focuses on the conditional mean of children's economic outcomes to understand the role of family background, but ignores the information contained in conditional variance. Using exceptionally rich data free of coresidency bias, we provide evidence...

Measuring Income Mobility with Dirty Data (published in Ethnic and Racial Studies, 22(3), May 1999)

Cowell, Frank A; Schluter, Christian - Centre for Analysis of Social Exclusion, LSE - 1998

We examine the performance of measures of mobility when allowance is made for the possibility of data contamination. We find that 'single-stage' indices - those that are applied directly to a sample from a multivariate income distribution - usually prove to be non-robust in the face of...
