This paper offers some new directions in the analysis of nonparamertric models with exogenous treatment assignment. The nonparametric approach opens the door to the examination of potentially different distributed outcomes. When combined with cross-validation, it also identifies potentially...

We exploit data from the China Household Finance Survey to examine the impact of changes in the minimum wage on employment and investment decisions. We are able to non-parametrically identify the average treatment effect on the treated via exogenous variation in the minimum wage across...

This study integrates two bodies of work to explore how changes in human capital have impacted the distribution of household permanent income. Introducing a human capital accumulation model, a framework is established - utilizing the special properties of the Gini coefficient - which maps...

While the rise in childhood obesity is clear, the policy rami cations are not. School nutrition programs such as the School Breakfast Program (SBP) have come under much scrutiny. However, the lack of experimental evidence, combined with non-random selection into these programs, makes...
