This study investigates empirically how human capital, measured by educational attainment, is related to income distribution. The regressions, using a cross-country data between 1980 and 2015, show that more equal distribution of education contributes significantly reducing inequality. Educational expansion major factor in inequality thus Social benefits spending price stability contribute inequality, while public helps reduce In contrast, higher per capita income, greater trade openness...
We investigate empirically how human capital, measured by educational attainment, is related to income distribution. find that the regressions, using a panel data set covering broad range of countries between 1980 and 2015, show more equal distribution education contributes significantly reducing inequality. Educational expansion major factor in inequality thus Public policies improve social benefits price stability contribute inequality, while public spending on helps reduce In contrast,...
This study proposes a new methodological approach by utilizing machine learning-based clustering algorithm to measure academic performance inequality in Chinese middle schools. Unlike traditional methods that use single summary statistics, our clusters schools based on the entire empirical cumulative distribution function of student test scores, capturing more complex patterns inequality. We classify into three distinct reflecting varying degrees Our findings reveal with higher...
Using data on Korean workers from the Programme for International Assessment of Adult Competencies, present study empirically investigates incidence and wage effects educational mismatch. Among full‐time aged 25–54, approximately 27 percent are overeducated 15 undereducated. Our results reveal that, after controlling omitted variable bias measurement errors, return to an additional year overeducation is significantly less than that a required education, whereas undereducated do not appear...
Abstract This study analyses the patterns and determinants of intergenerational persistence education attainment. Internationally comparable data are used by age cohort for parentsʼ childrenʼs levels 30 countries. The regression coefficients estimated explicitly considering bias from censored regressor, they show that educational mobility has worsened over generations in most However, degree change varies considerably across countries time. Country‐cohort panel regressions performed using...
This study investigates the impact of a large demand shock driven by US-Vietnam Bilateral Trade Agreement (BTA) in 2001 on timing women's marital decisions and first childbirth experiences Vietnam. We hypothesize that reduction men's self-employment would delay family formation childbirth, with ultimate marriage remaining ambiguous. Analyzing data from Vietnam Household Living Standards Surveys, we find both men women are less likely to be self-employed face substantial trade shock. Notably,...
Using a machine learning approach, we attempt to identify the school-, student-, and country-related factors that predict East Asian students’ higher PISA mathematics scores compared their international peers. We student- school-related factors, such as metacognition–assess credibility, time, early childhood education care, grade repetition, school type size, class student behavior hindering learning, important predictors of average students. Moreover, country-level proportion youth not in...
Abstract This study constructs and calibrates a macroeconomic model that explains Korea's glass ceiling examines the output cost of gender discrimination. The is based on span‐of‐control framework in Lucas (1978). It assumed source women requiring more managerial skill than men to be considered for promotion. According simulation results, without ceiling, besides an increase share female managers, aggregate also increases by 8.4%. gain from removal policy monotonic because number workers...
Disruption and shutdown of exchanges frequently happen in the cryptocurrency market, though its potential impacts are relatively under-investigated due to several empirical challenges. This study employs 20-h service interruption on October 15th at Upbit, dominant exchange Korea, as an exogenous shock examine effect unexpected market. Event estimation using price data from Binance, largest globally, shows sharp negative reactions cryptocurrencies mostly traded Upbit. Major currencies such...
