Socioeconomic advantage as protection from genetic mental health risks
The burden of mental illness is unequally distributed, with higher prevalence among socioeconomically disadvantaged individuals and those with a genetic predisposition to mental illness. Using data from the U.S. Health and Retirement Study (HRS), we examine whether childhood socioeconomic status (SES) moderates the association between genetic predisposition - measured using polygenic indices (PGIs) - and adult mental health. We document a childho…
Implications of Covid-19 labour market shocks for inequality in financial wellbeing
Migration magnet: The role of work experience in rural–urban wage differentials
This study uses the nationally representative Mexican Family Life Survey (MxFLS) to identify systematic differences in earnings returns to human capital endowments for formal and informal sector workers in rural and urban Mexico. Returns to experience are critical in explaining the large urban wage gap in a Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition and indeed drive pull migration from the rural informal sector to the urban informal sector, exacerbating urban …

The Increasingly Mixed Proportional Hazard Model: An Application to Socioeconomic Status, Health Shocks, and Mortality
We introduce a duration model that allows for unobserved cumulative individual-specific shocks, which are likely to be important in explaining variations in duration outcomes, such as length of life and time spent unemployed. The model is also a useful tool in situations where researchers observe a great deal of information about individuals when first interviewed in surveys but little thereafter. We call this model the “increasingly mixed propor…

You’re Fired! the Causal Negative Effect of Entry Unemployment on Life Satisfaction
This article examines the impact of unemployment for men and women on life satisfaction for Germany 1991-2006 using the German Socio-Economic Panel. We find that for women in east and west Germany, company closures in the year of entry into unemployment produce strongly negative effects on life satisfaction over and above an overall effect of unemployment, providing "prima facie" evidence of reduced outside work options, large investments in firm…

Money Does Matter! Evidence from Increasing Real Income and Life Satisfaction in East Germany Following Reunification
Money Does Matter! Evidence from Increasing Real Income and Life Satisfaction in East Germany Following Reunification by Paul Frijters, John P. Haisken-DeNew and Michael A. Shields. Published in volume 94, issue 3, pages 730-740 of American Economic Review, June 2004
The Changing Digital Divide in Germany
Interindustry and Interregion Differentials: Mechanics and Interpretation
In their seminal study on interindustry wage differentials, Krueger and Summers (1988) expressed estimated industry differences as deviations from a hypothetical employment-share weighted mean. Virtually the whole labor literature has followed their approach, yet most studies avoid calculating the exact standard errors of these differences. This note relates this problem to the general literature on dummy variables and their interpretation. It is…
