Earnings Inequality and Mobility in the United States: Evidence from Social Security Data Since 1937
TL;DR: This article used Social Security Administration longitudinal earnings micro data since 1937 to analyze the evolution of inequality and mobility in the United States and found that long-term mobility among all workers has increased since the 1950s but has slightly declined among men.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intergenerational Economic Mobility in the United States, 1940 to 2000
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors estimate trends in intergenerational economic mobility by matching men in the Census to synthetic parents in the prior generation, finding that mobility increased from 1950 to 1980 but has declined sharply since 1980.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stability and Change in Self-Reported Sexual Orientation Identity in Young People: Application of Mobility Metrics
TL;DR: Gender- and age-related changes in sexual orientation identity from early adolescence through emerging adulthood in 13,840 youth ages 12–25 employing mobility measure M, a measure modified from its original application for econometrics is described.
Income Mobility I
Markus Jäntti,Stephen P. Jenkins +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors survey the literature on income mobility, aiming to provide an integrated discussion of mobility within and between-generations, and review mobility concepts, descriptive devices, measurement methods, data sources, and recent empirical evidence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Does Income Mobility Equalize Longer-term Incomes? New Measures of an Old Concept
TL;DR: This article developed a new class of measures of mobility as an equalizer of longer-term incomes, a concept different from other notions such as mobility as time-independence, positional movement, share movement, income flux, and directional income movement.

Redistribution and Insurance in Welfare States Around the World
Charlotte Bartels,Dirk Neumann +1 more
TL;DR: The authors investigated to what extent long-run redistribution diverges from annual redistribution in welfare states of different types, and found that welfare states like Germany that are assumed to engage in a high level of redistribution actually achieve relatively less redistribution between individuals in the long run than the United Kingdom or the United States.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intragenerational mobility and the ratio of permanent to total inequality
TL;DR: The authors provided finite sample conditions for the ratio of permanent to total inequality based on methods of Gottschalk and Moffitt (1994) to be equivalent to the Shorrocks R constructed with a Theil General Entropy Index.

Geographic distribution of commercial fishing landings and port consolidation following ITQ Implementation
Cameron Speir,Min-Yang Lee +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluate whether changes in geographic distribution of landings coincided with the implementation of individual transferable quotas (ITQs) in the limited-entry groundfish trawl fishery on the U.S. Pacific coast.
Dissertation
Three essays in labour market mobility
TL;DR: The authors employ a dynamic multinomial logit model with discrete factor approximation for the specification of unobserved individual heterogeneity and Wooldridge's approach for controlling the endogeneity problem of initial conditions The dynamic structural of the model is assumed to follow a first order Markov process.

The Relationships between Annual Inequality, and Subannual Inequality and Mobility: Evidence from Germany
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the relationship between inequality in the annual earnings distribution and subannual inequality and mobility during the course of the year, and showed that the mobility component of the decomposition, as measured by Gini correlation coefficients, changes over the observation period.
