• Counterfactual distributions with sample selection adjustments: Econometric theory and an application to the Netherlands (2007, unknown): “Autor, Katz, and Kearney (2005) discuss the relationship between the Machado-Mata method and the Dinardo, et al. approach. quantiles conditional on xA are given by Quantu(YAB|XA = xA) = xAβB(u) u ∈ [0, 1].”
• Incentives for Managers and Inequality Among Workers: Evidence from a Firm Level Experiment (2007, unknown): “This has been argued to have increased throughout the 1970s and 1980s (Juhn et el 1993), and into the 1990s (Acemoglu 2002, and Autor et al 2005).”
• Time to Eat: Household Production Under Increasing Income Inequality (2007, unknown): “Since Autor et al (2005) show that the biggest increase in inequality in men’s actual earnings over this period was in the upper part of the distribution of earnings and that wage inequality in the lower half of the distribution may even have narrowed, the changing inequality in the distribution of…”
• Business Cycle Dynamics Under Rational Inattention (2015, unknown): “3 discount factor is β ∈ (0, 1 ). The period utility function is given by”
• Trends in U.S. Wage Inequality: Re-Assessing the Revisionists (2005, unknown): “We focus here on the partial equilibrium effects and provide a fuller discussion of general equilibrium effects in Autor, Katz, and Kearney (2005).”
• Trends in U.S. Wage Inequality: Revising the Revisionists (2008, unknown): “8 Autor, Katz, and Kearney (2005) and Lemieux (2006b) find large discrepancies in trends in residual inequality in the May/ORG versus March samples beginning in 1994.”
• The Polarization of the U.S. Labor Market (2006, unknown): “The divergence of upper- and lower-tail wage inequality since the late 1980s holds for residual wage inequality and is robust to adjustments for labor force composition changes (Autor et al., 2005a).”
• Inequality of opportunity in the land of opportunities, 1968–2001 (2009, unknown): “However, during the second half of the nineties the growth of earnings inequality is weaker (Lemieux (2006), Autor et al. (2005a) and Gottschalk and Danziger (2005)) before increasing over the last few years of the sample.”
• Skills, Tasks and Technologies: Implications for Employment and Earnings. NBER Working Paper No. 16082. (2010, unknown): “Autor , Katz and Kearney ( 2005 and 2008 ) suggest caution in interpreting this result because the composition - based explanation for rising wage dispersion does not …t the asymmetric expansion of the upper tail and compression of the lower tail .”
• Inference on counterfactual distributions (2009, unknown): “Because our analysis relies only on the conditional quantile estimators or conditional distribution estimators satisfying a functional central limit theorem, it applies quite broadly and covers such major methods as (1) conventional classical regression and its generalizations, (2) quantile regressi”
• Estimation of counterfactual distributions using quantile regression (2006, unknown): “(2005b) and Autor, Katz and Kearney (2005a and 2005b) .”
