A Common Consumption Pattern in China
Using a representative sample of Chinese households, this article studies how a non‐rich household's consumption is positively affected by the consumption and income of its rich reference group. Exploiting variations in the levels of the top quantiles of county–year consumption and income distributions, we document two central results. First, non‐rich households consume more when exposed to a reference group with higher consumption and income. Se…
Semiparametric Estimation of a Censored Regression Model Subject to Nonparametric Sample Selection
This study proposes a semiparametric estimation method for a censored regression model subject to nonparametric sample selection without the exclusion restriction. Consistency and asymptotic normality of the proposed estimator are established under mild regularity conditions. A Monte Carlo simulation study indicates that the estimator performs well in various designs and outperforms parametric maximum likelihood estimators. An empirical applicati…
A Nonparametric and Semiparametric Analysis on Inequality and Development
This paper studies the income inequality and economic development relationship by using unbalanced panel data of OECD and non-OECD countries (regions) for the period 1962-2003. The nonparametric estimation results show that income inequality in OECD countries is almost on the backside of the inverted-U relationship, while non-OECD countries are approximately on the foreside, except that the relationship in both country groups shows an upturn at a…
