Nonparametric estimation of distributional policy effects (2010, positive): “In another related paper, Firpo, Fortin, and Lemieux (2008) propose a method to estimate”
Unconditional Quantile Treatment Effects Under Endogeneity (2007, positive): “When the conditional distribution is estimated by local regression or by nearest neighbor regression, we obtain the estimator proposed, for example, in Frölich (2007b).”
Caught in a Productivity Trap: A Distributional Perspective on Gender Differences in Malawian Agriculture (2013, positive): “A method that is similar in spirit to the mean decomposition uses the recentered influence function (RIF) regressions proposed by Firpo et al. (2009) and provides a straightforward framework within which across-group differences in any distributional statistic could be decomposed.”
Inference on counterfactual distributions (2009, methodology): “In a recent important development, Firpo, Fortin, and Lemieux (2007) propose an alternative useful procedure to estimate policy effects of changes in the distribution of X.”
Occupational Tasks and Changes in the Wage Structure (2011, positive): “Using a decomposition based on Firpo, Fortin, and Lemieux (2009), we find that technological change and deunionization played a central role in the 1980s and 1990s, while offshorability became an important factor from the 1990s onwards.”
Exporters and the rise in wage inequality: Evidence from German linked employer–employee data (2013, positive): “Similarly, the decomposition based on regressions of recentered influence functions as recently suggested by Firpo et al. (2009, 2007) only allows for the distinction of a composition (characteristics) and a combined wage structure effect.”
