Revisiting Inter-Industry Wage Differentials and the Gender Wage Gap: An Identification Problem
Yun, Myeong-Su - Institute for the Study of Labor (IZA) - 2006
We propose a measure of the industrial gender wage gap which is free from an identification problem by using inter … can be used to resolve the identification problem in detailed Oaxaca decompositions of wage differentials. By identifying … resolve the two key identification problems that arise in studying wage gaps: one in detailed Oaxaca decompositions; the other …

Decomposing Differences in the First Moment
Yun, Myeong-Su - 2003
We propose a simple methodology for decomposing differences in the first moment into characteristics and coefficients effects. This methodology provides a way to apply the Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition to a non-linear function for both aggregate and detailed decompositions.

A Detailed Decomposition of Synthetic Cohort Analysis
Barr, Tavis; Lin, Carl - 2013
Social scientists are often interested in assessing relative changes between two groups over time, for example, the convergence of black-white wages from 1940 to 1990. In such situations, we need a control group for both treatment groups to remove biases resulting from time trends and unobserved...

A detailed decomposition of synthetic cohort analysis
Barr, Tavis; Lin, Carl - In: Economics Letters 127 (2015) C, pp. 76-80
We present a detailed decomposition method and provide a Stata estimator to assess relative changes between two groups over time in a synthetic cohort analysis. Using the convergence of black–white wage gap between 1960 and 1970 as an example, we show that education accounts for 73% of the...
