Occupation–education mismatch of immigrant workers in Europe: Context and policies (2013, background): “…selection models is that numerous bilateral factors, such as distance between countries, sharing a common border or a common language, having a common colonial past, by reducing the costs of moving, should negatively affect the selection [Docquier et al., 2008; Mayda, 2010; Belot and Hatton, 2008].”
Migration and Financial Constraints: Evidence from Mexico (2013, background): “these loans are primarily informal, (3) if the borrower is the migrant himself, the loan information is missing, as it is asked only about current household residents, and (4) some loans to finance migrations may already have been repaid, and therefore not listed by the respondent, at the time the d”
Out-migration, Wealth Constraints, and the Quality of Local Amenities (2014, background): “In addition, unlikemost existing papers, which rely on aggregate data (see, e.g., Clark et al., 2007) or consider bilateral movements (see, e.g., Belot and Hatton, 2008; Mayda, 2010), we use micro level data and examine the variation across individuals for a large number of countries.”

International Migration and the Economics of Language (2014, methodology): “…gap is less, and hence immigrants can readily learn the dominant language of the destination.5 There might be a suspicion that the stronger results obtained with the seemingly superior measure of linguistic distance in Belot and Hatton (2012) is linked to their focus on stocks of immigrants.”
A practitioners' guide to gravity models of international migration (2016, unknown): “…at origin (Vogler and Rotte, 2000; Clark et al., 2007; Pedersen et al., 2008; Mayda, 2010), controlling for the incidence of poverty at origin (Belot and Hatton, 2012) or splitting the sample as a function of income at origin (Ortega and Peri, 2013).16 The econometric evidence provided by…”
