Means-testing and tax rates on earnings: a contribution to the Mirrlees Review (2009, unknown): “…US data] finds tax effects on marriage that are consistent with the theoretical predictions but are small in size’ (these studies are cited in Eissa and Hoynes (2004)); a related literature finds that marriage is also sensitive to the financial incentives inherent in welfare systems…”
The earned income tax credit and fertility (2009, background): “The literature shows that expansions in the EITC increased participation in the labor market for single mothers (Eissa and Liebman 1996; Hotz et al. 2006; Meyer and Rosenbaum 2000; Dickert et al. 1995) and decreased the labor supply of married women (Eissa and Hoynes 2004; Dickert et al. 1995).”
What Explains the Variation in Estimates of Labour Supply Elasticities? (2006, methodology): “Studies that use both OLS and IV are Mroz (1987), Blomquist (1996), Pencavel (2002), Eissa and Hoynes (2004) and Blau and Kahn (2005).”
Poverty in America: Trends and Explanations (2006, background): “Eissa and Hoynes 2004 show that these predictions hold in practice, although the behavioral responses are modest in size. they may reduce the poverty gap).”
Comparing Labor Supply Elasticities in Europe and the US: New Results (2012, methodology): “In our baseline, we specify consumption-leisure preferences using a quadratic utility function with xed costs.”
The Employment Effects of Low-Wage Subsidies (2010, methodology): “Using this strategy, Eissa and Liebman (1996) and Blundell (2006) compare the changes in labour supply between single mothers and (ineligible) single women without children.”
The marginal cost of public funds: Hours of work versus labor force participation (2006, unknown): “For example, recent expansions to tax-based transfers in the United States created large effects on female labor force participation (Eissa and Liebman, 1996; Meyer and Rosenbaum, 2001; Eissa and Hoynes, 2004).”
The Wage Elasticity of Labour Supply: A Synthesis of Empirical Estimates (2008, methodology): “Studies that use both OLS and four are Mroz (1987); Blomquist (1996); Pencavel (2002); Eissa and Hoynes (2004) and Blau and Kahn (2005).”
