We examine how research and development (R&D) has contributed to income inequality in the Group of Seven (G7) countries from 1870 to 2016. Using newly developed panel data models that incorporate interactive fixed effects, we find that R&D is negatively associated with income inequality....

Using longitudinal data from the China Family Panel Studies (CFPS), this study provides insights on comparative wellbeing outcomes for older people who are institutionally segregated into clusters that produce uneven social capital. We present the first study that examines how institutionalized...

Using four waves of longitudinal data from the China Family Panel Studies (CFPS), we examine the effects of income inequality on subjective wellbeing (SWB). We take a dual approach in measuring income inequality, and thus, we examine the effects of inequality using province-level Gini...

We examine the effects of transport infrastructure on house prices in the OECD countries over the period 1870 to 2016. We employ both parametric and non-parametric panel data techniques that account for the non-linear and time-varying relationship between transport infrastructure and house...

We examine the relationship between financial development and house prices in the Group of Seven (G7) countries over the period 1870 to 2016. We use parametric panel data models that incorporate interactive fixed effects and non-parametric models that allow us to examine non-linearities and the...

Using data from the UK Community Life Survey, we present the first study to examine the relationship between heterogeneity in one's friendship network and subjective wellbeing. We measure network heterogeneity by the extent to which one's friends are similar to oneself with regard to ethnicity...
