This paper analyzes wage decomposition methodology in the context of panel data sample selection embedded in a … correlated random effects setting. Identification issues unique to panel data are examined for their implications for wage … decompositions. As an empirical example, we apply our methodology to German Socio-Economic Panel (GSOEP) data with which we …

The presence of cross-sectionally correlated error terms invalidates much inferential theory of panel data models … for stationary panel regressions with multifactor error structure. This paper extends this work and examines the important …

class of indirect inference models. Our smoothing procedure makes use of importance sampling weights in estimation of the … auxiliary model on simulated data. The importance sampling weights are constructed from likelihood contributions implied by the …
