Since the early seventies an increasing attention has been paid to impact environmental polict nmight have on foreign trade. One of most important issues is whether countries with relatively strict regulations tend experience a deterioration international competitiveness and thus fall in exports rise imports, pollution‐intensive commodities or, other hand, benefit from improvement environmentally more sensitive industries. So far, empirical studies concluded that proportion costs total...
Abstract Chemicals such as ds-platinum, formaldehyde, chromate, copper, and certain arsenic compounds have been shown to produce DNA-protein cross-links in human vitro cell systems at high doses, those the cytotoxic range. Thus far there only a limited number of other chemicals evaluated for their ability cross-links. The purpose work described here was evaluate whether select industrial can form cells vitro. We acetaldehyde, acrolein, diepoxybutane, paraformaldehyde, 2-furaldehyde, prop't...
This paper uses a unique survey of consumers to test several separate but inter‐related hypotheses household saving. Unit records from 17,585 Australian households are available, which enables the incorporation range characteristics that may be important factors for saving behaviour, not typically available researchers undertaking macroeconomic analyses. An ordered probit estimation method is used, and results support view current incomes perhaps most determinant However, it can also seen...
We investigated marijuana, alcohol and tobacco consumption using micro‐unit data from the Australian National Drug Strategy Household Surveys. estimated a multivariate probit (MVP) model to allow for correlations across participations of different drugs sequential study separately determinants participation levels consumption. The MVP results indicate significant positive all three through unobservable characteristics, with correlation coefficient between marijuana being highest. approach...
Studies of the Australian graduate labour market have found a substantial incidence of, and significant earnings effects from, vertical mismatch. This study extends literature by examining horizontal mismatch, an important dimension mismatch in its own right which has been less studied. Over quarter graduates are to be mismatched, although is reduced longer term. Graduates from fields more occupation‐specific were likely mismatched. Earnings penalties for all forms affected both general...
This paper focuses on the self-reported responses given to survey questions of form “Overall, how would you rate your health?” with typical response items being a scale ranging from poor excellent. Usually, overwhelming majority fall in either middle category or one immediately “right” this (for example, good and very good). However, based wide range other medical indicators, such favorable appear paint an overly rosy picture true health. The hypothesis here is that these “middle” have been,...
In this study, individual labour market dynamics are analysed using the Australian Longitudinal Survey. A random utility framework for analysing discrete choices is adopted. context, a model incorporating state dependent relationship between employment outcomes estimated. The influence on of additional variables including education, gender and unemployment benefits also investigated. It found that, even after controlling observable unobservable differences individuals, there evidence...
Summary It is well known that the usual procedures for estimating panel data models are inconsistent in dynamic setting. A large number of consistent estimators however, have been proposed literature. This paper provides a survey majority mainstream estimators, which tend to consist IV and GMM ones. also considers newly extension promising Wansbeek–Bekker estimator (Harris & Mátyás, 2000). To provide guidance applied researcher working on micro‐datasets, small sample performance these...
Purpose The aim of the paper is to provide a framework for benchmarking firm performance (profitability) using panel data. Further, illustrate how estimation results can be used simulation (what if?) exercises. Design/methodology/approach authors apply econometric techniques in data estimate profit functions, thereby enabling us compute measures efficiencies which subsequently as tools. Findings suggest that both large firms and those highly specialised, enjoy higher margins, whereas more...
Objectives This study aimed to determine the extent of both multimorbidity and work productivity loss among young adults with paid analyze their association. Methods We included 604 participants from a follow-up Raine Study that comprised cohort who were 22 years at time (Gen2-22). Information on 36 health conditions, grouped into 10 condition categories, was collected through questionnaires physical assessments (for body mass index only). Quarterly about productivity, including total...
This paper uses administrative data from the Australian Tax Office (ATO) to model effective tax rates (ETRs) of large corporates. The extent which there is any habit persistence in ETRs also examined. results suggest that unobserved entity heterogeneity important explaining ETRs. In terms observed heterogeneity, size, level leverage, capital intensity, foreign income and R&D, are explanators There evidence a significant amount persistence, implying converge monotonically towards statutory...
Summary We explore the possibility that a systematic relationship exists between employment within particular type of contract and risk preference. exploit set proxies for preference, whereby some capture loving behaviour (expenditure on gambling, smoking alcohol) whereas others averse life contents insurance, unearned income). The empirical analysis, based pooled cross-section data from UK Family Expenditure Survey, 1997–2000, provides evidence with, example, self-employed workers being...
We examine the occupational attainment of recent immigrants at 2 years post migration in order to study their early stage assimilation into labour market Australia. Human capital endowments and country-of-origin effects are examined for six groups. also transitions across occupations from source host country. The empirical approach utilizes Ordered Generalized Extreme Value (OGEV) model which embodies differing utility functions outcomes, as well accounting any ordering these outcomes....
