This study is one of the first to apply machine learning to…
On decomposing the changes in wage inequality in Palestine over time
This paper examines the evolution of wage inequality in Palestine's labour market from 2009 to 2016. Using the Gini coefficient, along with bottom, upper, and middle inter-quintiles, we identify a persistent upward trend in wage disparity over time. Applying an inter-temporal decomposition approach, we distinguish between the composition effect—driven by demographic and labour market characteristics—and the wage structure effect, which reflects u…

Do non-natives catch-up with the natives in terms of earnings in Jordan? New evidence from a distributional analysis
Using a nationally representative dataset extracted from the Jordanian Labor Market Panel Survey (JLMPS) for the two years 2010 and 2016, we apply both the standard Oaxaca–Blinder and quantile decomposition approaches to provide a more comprehensive distributional analysis of the native-immigrant wage differentials in Jordan over the period 2010–2016. By assessing the contribution of a rich set of labor market characteristics to the distributiona…
The role of Basel II in reducing credit risks in the Palestinian commercial banks
The main purpose of this study was to determine how the implementation of Basel II in commercial banks in Palestine can reduce their credit risks. A sample of 150 credit risk officers was selected among 246 credit risk officers working in the commercial banks inside Palestine Both descriptive statistics and econometric approach were applied to test the hypothesis. The study found a substantial role for applying Basel II on managing the credit ris…
Food attitudes and consumer behavior towards food in conflict-affected zones during the Covid-19 pandemic
Purpose Global lockdowns and restrictions linked to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic have affected food environments and consumption patterns. Conflict-affected countries are disproportionately affected from economic and food security perspectives. In this regard, the Palestinian territories (namely West Bank and Gaza Strip), which face a number of issues such as Israeli military and economic control, overcrowded cities and refuge…
Determinants and wage penalty of qualification mismatches
Although it might be considered one of the main vigorous distortions in the Palestinian labour market, qualification mismatch has not been studied by researchers in Palestine. We draw upon this gap using Palestinian labour force survey between 2009 and 2016. This paper therefore presents a multinomial logit model to identify the factors affecting the prevalence of qualification mismatch and uses the Verdugo and Verdugo model to estimate its impac…
The transformational role of a third actor within the Triple Helix Model – the case of Palestine
Countries differ in terms of the effectiveness of their innovation ecosystem. The Triple Helix Model (THM) is useful in describing and analyzing the impact of the key actors in the national innovation system on the innovation performance of the industrial firms. The impact of Triple-Helix relationship on the firms’ innovativeness is measured using Ordinary Least Square (OLS) regression models. The results showed that industrial collaboration with…

This study presents factors that encourage Palestinian NGOs to embrace financial sustainability employing modern ideologies that encompass community engagement, voluntarism, collaboration, and business-like practices in order to meet societal challenges. The study explores the reliance of Palestinian NGOs on external funds (donor-driven funds) and the environment impact of their attempts at financial sustainability. Data were gathered using semi-…
