Using data from the German Socio-Economic Panel (GSOEP) we study whether being individually affected by downward wage rigidity has an effect on layoffs, quits and intra-firm mobility. Within a structural empirical model we estimate the individual extent of wage rigidity. This is expressed by the...

"The paper proposes a memory saving decomposition of the design matrix to facilitate fixed effects estimation of the three-way error component model with high numbers of observations and groups. A common way to estimate such a model is to include two of the effects as dummy variables and to...

It is standardly assumed that individuals react to perceived unfairness or norm violations in precisely the same area or relationship where the original offense has occurred. However, grievances over being exposed to injustice may have even broader consequences and also spill over to other...
