Margins of multinational labor substitution

Muendler, Marc-Andreas; Becker, Sascha O. - 2006

Multinational labor demand responds to wage differentials at the extensive margin, when a multinational enterprise (MNE) expands into foreign locations, and at the intensive margin, when an MNE operates existing affiliates across locations. We derive conditions for parametric and nonparametric...

Robust estimation of wage dispersion with censored data: An application to occupational earnings risk and risk attitudes

Pollmann, Daniel; Dohmen, Thomas; Palm, Franz C. - 2012

We present a semiparametric method to estimate group-level dispersion, which is particularly effective in the presence of censored data. We apply this procedure to obtain measures of occupation-specific wage dispersion using top-coded administrative wage data from the German IAB Employment...

Dynamic Treatment Assignment : The Consequences for Evaluations Using Observational Data

Fredriksson, Peter; Johansson, Per - 2004

This paper discusses the evaluation problem using observational data when the timing of treatment is an outcome of a stochastic process. We show that the duration framework in discrete time provides a fertile ground for effect evaluations. We suggest easy-to-use nonparametric survival function...

Estimation of Linear Models from Coarsened Observations: A Method of Moments Approach

van Praag, Bernard M. S.; Hop, J. Peter; Greene, William H. - 2025

single-equation models estimation of the latent linear model by Maximum Likelihood (ML) is routine. But, for higher …-dimensional multivariate models it is computationally cumbersome as estimation requires the evaluation of multivariate normal distribution … functions on a large scale. Our proposed alternative estimation method, based on the Generalized Method of Moments (GMM …

Treatment Evaluation with Multiple Outcome Periods under Endogeneity and Attrition

Frölich, Markus; Huber, Martin - 2014

This paper develops a nonparametric methodology for treatment evaluation with multiple outcome periods under treatment endogeneity and missing outcomes. We use instrumental variables, pre-treatment characteristics, and short-term (or intermediate) outcomes to identify the average treatment...
