Returns to Education and Wage Equations: a Dynamic Approach Applied Economics Letters 14,8 (June 2007): 577-579. Also: http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/13504850500461555 Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: Routledge ==> Taylor & Francis (1998) Keyword(s): Education; Educational Returns; Modeling; Wage Differentials; Wage Equations We study the impact of education on within-groups wage inequality using quantile-regression techniques and U.S. data for the period of 1980-1987. Our contribution consists of comparing estimates based on a standard Mincer equation with estimates based on a modified Mincer equation in which past earnings play the role of additional explanatory variable. We find that a dynamic model does not give the same answer as a static model regarding the impact of schooling on earnings dispersion, and provide an explanation for this result. [Abstract from the Author] Data are from the U.S. National Longitudinal Survey of Youth for the period of 1980-1987 |
