Does the choice of reference levels of education matter in the ORU earnings equation?
Chiswick, Barry R.; Miller, Paul W. - 2009
This paper examines whether the results of the earnings equation developed in the overeducation/required eduation/under-education (ORU) literature are sensitive to whether the usual or reference levels of education are measured using the Realized Matches or Worker Self-Assessment methods. The...

Educational choice, initial wage and wage growth
Mazza, Jacopo; Ophem, Hans van - 2020
We investigate the major choice of college graduates where we make choice dependent on expected initial wages and expected wage growth per major. We build a model that allows us to estimate these factors semiparametrically and that corrects for selection bias. We estimate the model on the...
