Policies for young adults with reduced work capacity. Labour market impact in Sweden and Norway
The rising numbers of young people with disability pension concerns many advanced economies. We present results from a comparative analysis of the neighbouring countries Sweden and Norway on the impacts of differing policy mixes aimed at enhancing the employability of the work disabled. Using rich longitudinal data, we follow unemployed young adults (ages 25-29) with work-impairment up to four years after they became unemployed to investigate the…
Pressing the right button—labour market odds for youth with mental illness
Mental disorders threaten the chances of finishing secondary school and can hinder the school-to-work transitions of afflicted youths.Earlier onset depression predicts the chronicity, recurrence, and severity of episodes throughout life.Using rich, objective mental health data and a battery of variables covering personal and family characteristics, we investigate the impact of Norway's vocational rehabilitation programmes on youths aged 18-23 who…

Results are reported and compared for four Nordic countries: Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden

Moreover, sound public finances and strong emphasis on environmental sustainability suggest that today’s success has not been accomplished at the expense of future generations. But is there really a unique “Nordic Supermodel”, unshaken by the glo…
Rank-Dependent Utility, Tax Evasion, and Labor Supply
In a portfolio model of tax evasion an expected utility maximizer will cheat more than what is estimated in empirical studies. At least two types of explanation have been suggested as solutions to this puzzle: (1) taxpayers act according to some unexpected utility theory, and (2) individual ethical norms and social stigma induce people not to cheat. Based on Norwegian survey data, we find that a rank-dependent expected-utility model performs bett…
