Heterogeneous returns to human capital and dynamic self-selection
Belzil, Christian; Hansen, Jörgen - 2001
We estimate a structural dynamic programming model of schooling decisions and obtain individual specific estimates of the local (and average) returns to schooling as well as the returns to experience. Homogeneity of the returns to human capital is strongly rejected in favor of a discrete...

On the Specification of Mincerian Wage Regressions with Heterogeneity, Non-Linearity, Non-Separability, and Heteroskedasticity
Belzil, Christian - 2004
Using panel data taken from the NLSY, I perform the joint estimation of i) a reduced-form dynamic model of the transition from one grade level to the next with observed and unobserved heterogeneity, and ii) a flexible version of the celebrated Mincerian wage regression with skill heterogeneity,...

A Structural Analysis of the Correlated Random Coefficient Wage Regression Model
Belzil, Christian; Hansen, Jörgen - 2002
We estimate a finite mixture dynamic programming model of schooling decisions in which the log wage regression function is set in a random coefficient framework. The model allows for absolute and comparative advantages in the labor market and assumes that the population is composed of 8 unknown...

Country of origin, earnings convergence, and human capital investment : a new method for the analysis of U.S. immigrant economic assimilation
Duleep, Harriet Orcutt; Liu, Xingfei; Regets, Mark C. - 2018
The initial earnings of U.S. immigrants vary enormously by country of origin. Via three interrelated analyses, we show earnings convergence across source countries with time in the United States. Human-capital theory plausibly explains the inverse relationship between initial earnings and...
