Observability, Honesty, and the Social Image Costs of Lying

We study the role of social image in influencing lying behavior through a pre-registered within-subject experiment embedded in the 2020 wave of the German SocioEconomic Panel Innovation Sample (SOEP-IS). By exogenously manipulating the observability of lying across two tasks, we explore how individuals respond to increased image costs of lying. By exploiting the rich comprehensive socio-demographic ...

Utilisation of dental services by refugees in Germany: Results of the population-based RESPOND survey

Background: The utilisation of outpatient dental services is an important indicator for monitoring healthcare provision in Germany. In the general population, the 12-month prevalence of dental service utilization is 82.2 %. For refugees, this indicator has hardly been measured, although studies suggest an objectively high need for dental care. Methodology: As part of the population-based cross-sectional ...

The Long-term Effects of Inflation on Inflation Expectations

We study the long-term effects of inflation surges on inflation expectations. German households living in areas with higher local inflation during the hyperinflation of the 1920s expect higher inflation today. Our evidence points towards a transmission of inflation experiences from parents to children and through local institutions. Differential historical inflation also modulates the updating of expectations ...

Nonparametric regression with selectively missing covariates

We consider the problem of regression with selectively observed covariates in a nonparametric framework. Our approach relies on instrumental variables that explain variation in the latent covariates but have no direct effect on selection. The regression function of interest is shown to be a weighted version of observed conditional expectation where the weighting function is a fraction of selection ...

Correction for Breznau et al., Observing many researchers using the same data and hypothesis reveals a hidden universe of uncertainty

Die IAB-SOEP-Migrationsstichprobe: Leben, lernen, arbeiten - wie es Migranten in Deutschland geht

Weltweit ist Migration eins der zentralen Zukunftsthemen. Vielfältige Motive veranlassen immer mehr Menschen, ihren Lebensmittelpunkt - zum Teil mehrfach - in ein anderes Land zu verlegen. Das Institut für Arbeitsmarkt- und Berufsforschung (IAB) Nürnberg und das Sozio-oekonomische Panel (SOEP) des Deutschen Instituts für Wirtschaftsforschung (DIW Berlin) führen seit dem Jahr 2013 eine Befragung von ...

Institutionelle Hürden beeinflussen Umfang und Qualität der Erwerbstätigkeit von Geflüchteten

In diesem Forschungsbericht wird die Arbeitsmarktintegration der zwischen 2013 bis Mitte 2019 nach Deutschland zugezogenen Geflüchteten und ihrer Haushaltsmitglieder auf Grundlage der IAB-BAMF-SOEP-Befragung von Geflüchteten untersucht. Demnach sind sowohl die Erwerbstätigenquoten als auch die Verdienste seit dem Ende der COVID-19-Pandemie merklich gestiegen und die Qualität der Arbeitsmarktintegration ...

Ukrainian refugees: Nearly half intend to stay in Germany for the longer term

Millions of Ukrainians have been displaced by the Russian war on Ukraine, with over one million alone coming to Germany since the beginning of the war. Data from the second survey wave of the IAB-BiB/FReDA-BAMF-SOEP Survey of Ukrainian Refugees in Germany study show that as of the beginning of 2023, an increasing share of Ukrainian refugees plan on staying in Germany for the longer term. Around three ...

Analyse der Einkommens- und Beschäftigungswirkungen einer Einführung des CDU-Konzepts der „Aktiv-Rente“

Im September 2023 stellte die CDU das Konzept der „Aktiv-Rente“ vor. Die Idee dahinter ist, den Arbeitsverdienst von Rentnerinnen und Rentnern, die neben dem Bezug einer gesetzlichen Rente eine bezahlte Beschäftigung aufnehmen, bis zu 2.000 Euro pro Monat steuerfrei zu stellen. Diese Steuerbefreiung soll unter anderem die Arbeitsanreize verbessern sowie dem Fachkräftemangel entgegenwirken. Eduard Brüll, ...

Social Trust and the Quality of Government: Evidence for a Reciprocal Relationship

This study theorizes that the relationship between social trust and governmental quality is reciprocal. Examining the relationship in one direction, we utilize socioeconomic conditions as a performance measure of governmental quality and assess their impact on social trust. Going in the other direction, we examine the effects of social trust on political behavior as a determinant of governmental quality. ...
