Statistical Signature of Pervasive Competition on Wage and Salary Incomes The Journal of Mathematical Sociology 26,4 (December 2002): 217-270 Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: Taylor & Francis Keyword(s): Income Dynamics/Shocks; Longitudinal Data Sets; Wage Dynamics Population biologists and comparative animal behaviorists assume that competition between members of the same species allocates resource utility, but they cannot validate that assumption without a unidimensional measure of resource utility such as money, which they do not have since they leave humans to the social sciences. One of the social sciences, economics, takes the point of view that pervasive zero-sum competition between people does not determine wage and salary incomes. The present article validates the assumption of population biology and comparative animal behavior that competition within a species allocates resource utility by finding the statistical signature of pervasive zero-sum competition in longitudinal data on individual wage and salary incomes. |
