  • How and Why the Dynamics of Poverty Differ Across European Countries

    In a duration analysis framework, I develop a method in the spirit of the popular Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition that allows disentangling the cross-country differences in measures of poverty dynamics in the contribution due to differences in the distribution of characteristics and the contribution due to differences in the poverty dynamics generating process. I illustrate this with the comparison of ...

  • The Employment of Separated Women in Europe: Individual and Institutional Determinants

    Studies on the economic consequences of divorce for women have paid little attention to changes in employment. In this article, we investigate changes in employment for separating women and the impact of individual and institutional factors on these changes using data on 13 countries from the European Community Household Panel (19942001). Our dynamic analyses of the odds of employment entry and exit, ...

  • The Labor Market Impact of Immigration in Western Germany in the 1990's

    In this article we estimate the wage and employment effects of recent immigration in Western Germany. Using administrative data for the period 1987–2001 and a labor-market equilibrium model, we find that the substantial immigration of the 1990s had very little adverse effects on native wages and on their employment levels. Instead, it had a sizeable adverse employment effect on previous immigrants ...

  • Explaining the Body Mass Index Gaps between Turkish Immigrants and Germans in West Germany 2002-2012: A Decomposition Analysis of Socio-economic Causes

    In this paper, we decompose body mass index (BMI) differences between Turkish immigrants and Germans in West Germany for women and men. We focus on isolating the part of BMI differences that can be explained by differences in observed socioeconomic status from the part attributable to differences in coefficients. Our results reveal that female Turkish immigrants are on average more obese than female ...

  • Spillover Effects of Local Human Capital Stock on Adult Obesity: Evidence from German Neighborhoods

    This paper is the first to estimate the causal effect of local human capital stock on individual adiposity and adds to the existing literature on estimating human capital externalities at the neighborhood level. We explore the possible causal pathways that college-educated neighbors exert on individual body weight, with the results revealing small yet significant human capital spillover effects. Among ...

  • A Decomposition Analysis of Cigarette Consumption Differences between Male Turkish Immigrants and Germans in West Germany 2002-2012

    In this article, we investigate the differences in smoking behavior between male Turkish immigrants and male Germans, using data from the German Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP). More specifically, we use a Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition method for count data models, and isolate differences in the number of cigarettes consumed daily between Turkish immigrants and Germans into a component reflecting differences ...
