To overcome this restriction, we propose a flexible estimation strategy that nests … elasticities derived from microeconometric models can also be explained by modeling assumptions with respect to wages. Specifically … very sensitive to the treatment of wages. In particular, the often-made but highly restrictive independence assumption …

Frisch elasticity. We estimate Frisch elasticity at around 0.38, which indicates fairly adjustable wages and little reaction …We estimate Frisch elasticity in a labor market with high job turnover. In a context where only around 18% of the … employed labor force has formal and stable jobs, we perform a fixed effects estimation as proposed by MaCurdy (1981) with a …

This paper provides estimates for the Mercosur countries of the Frisch elasticity – i.e., the elasticity of … substitution between worked hours and real wages holding constant the marginal utility of wealth. We find a strong heterogeneity …
