  • A Lifecycle Estimator of Intergenerational Income Mobility

    Ursula Mello, Martin Nybom et al.ARTICLEThe Review of Economics and…2025

    Lacking lifetime income data, most intergenerational mobility estimates are subject to lifecycle bias. Using long income series from Sweden and the US, we illustrate that standard correction methods struggle to account for one important property of income processes: children from affluent families experience faster income growth, even conditional on their own characteristics. We propose a lifecycle estimator that captures this pattern and perform…

  • Geographic Variation in Multigenerational Mobility

    Open AccessMartin Nybom, Jan StuhlerARTICLESociological Methods & Research2025Cited by: 1References: 53

    Using complete-count register data spanning three generations, we document spatial patterns in inter- and multi-generational mobility in Sweden. Across municipalities, grandfather–child correlations in education or earnings tend to be larger than the square of the parent–child correlations, suggesting that the latter understate status transmission in the long run. Yet, conventional parent–child correlations capture regional differences in long-ru…

  • The Contribution of Early‐life Versus Labour Market Factors to Intergenerational Income Persistence

    Open AccessAnita Björklund, Anders Björklund et al.ARTICLEThe Economic Journal2017Cited by: 5References: 1

    We explore whether differences in intergenerational income mobility between the UK and Sweden show up early in life, finding stronger associations between parental income and birthweight, height and school performance in the UK. We investigate whether these differentials can account for the country difference in income mobility. While differences in the associations in birthweight and height are too weak to matter, school performance does account…
