We demonstrate how the Heckman treatment methodology can be applied to the Rosenbaum sensitivity model and the Rubin matched difference estimator. We develop a statistical test of the conditional independence assumption (CIA), based on Heckit for matched pairs. If the CIA is rejected, the method...

We investigate the gender wage gap in three neglected MENA countries: Egypt (1980-2018), Jordan (2010-2016), and Turkey (2014-21017). We use repeated cross-sections and propensity score matching as the best way to control for observed heterogeneity. We find a much more sizeable gap than in...

This study examines the gender wage gap in the US using two separate cross-sections from the Current Population Survey (CPS). The extensive literature on this subject includes papers which use wage decompositions to divide gender wag gaps into "explained" and "unexplained" components. Problems...

The growth in women's participation in the labor force has attracted attention to the gender differences in commuting behavior, and to their implications. This study analyses the relationship between individual commuting behavior and household responsibilities, with a focus on gender differences...

We deploy a measure of occupational mismatch based on the discrepancy between the portfolio of skills required by an occupation and the array of abilities possessed by the worker for learning those skills. We report distinct gender differences in match quality and changes in match quality over...
