    • Baby booming inequality? Demographic change and earnings inequality in Norway, 1967–2000 

      Almås, Ingvild; Havnes, Tarjei; Mogstad, Magne (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)
      In this paper, we demonstrate how age-adjusted inequality measures can be used to evaluate whether changes in inequality over time are due to changes in the age-structure. To this end, we use administrative data on earnings ...

    • Betydningen av økonomiske insentiver for uføretrygdede 

      Kostøl, Andreas Ravndal; Mogstad, Magne (Journal article, 2014)
      Om ett år innføres ny uføretrygd i Norge. En viktig bakgrunn for reformen er at andelen uføre nesten er femdoblet siden 1961 (se Figur 1). I dag er det over 300.000 uføre, nesten like mange innbyggere som i Stavanger ...

    • The Distributional impact of public services when needs differ 

      Aaberge, Rolf; Bhuller, Manudeep; Langørgen, Audun; Mogstad, Magne (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010)
      Despite a broad consensus on the need to take into account the value of public services in distributional analysis, there is little reliable evidence on how the inclusion of such non-cash income actually affects poverty ...

    • Incarceration, Recidivism and Employment 

      Løken, Katrine Vellesen; Dahl, Gordon B.; Mogstad, Magne; Bhuller, Manudeep (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-02-10)
      Using a random judge design and panel data from Norway, we estimate that imprisonment discourages further criminal behavior, with reoffense probabilities falling by 29 percentage points and criminal charges dropping by 11 ...

    • Inequality in current and lifetime income 

      Aaberge, Rolf; Mogstad, Magne (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014-08-14)
      To gauge inequality in living standards, the distribution of lifetime income is likely to be more relevant than the distribution of current income. Yet, empirical studies of income inequality are typically based on ...

    • Lønner det seg å arbeide? 

      Mogstad, Magne; Solli, Ingeborg Foldøy; Wist, Arne Kolbeinstveit (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2006)
      Det er et uttalt politisk mål i den norske arbeids- og sosialpolitikken at det skal lønne seg å være i arbeide framfor å være stønadsmottaker. Utformingen av det norske skatte- og stønadssystemet er imidlertid slik at ...

    • Measuring long-term inequality of opportunity 

      Aaberge, Rolf; Mogstad, Magne; Peragine, Vito (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)
      Abstract In this paper, we introduce a new family of rank-dependent measures of inequality and social welfare consistent with the equality of opportunity (EOp) principle. The proposed framework can be used to measure ...

    • Ranking intersecting distribution functions 

      Aaberge, Rolf; Havnes, Tarjei; Mogstad, Magne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Second-degree dominance has become a widely accepted criterion for ordering distribution functions according to social welfare. However, it provides only a partial ordering, and it may fail to rank distributions that ...

    • Region-specific versus country-specific poverty lines in analysis of poverty 

      Mogstad, Magne; Langørgen, Audun; Aaberge, Rolf (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2007)
      The standard practice in most OECD countries is to identify the poor on the basis of a country-specific poverty line defined as a fraction of the median equivalent income. However, this approach disregards regional differences ...

    • Robust inequality comparisons 

      Aaberge, Rolf; Mogstad, Magne (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)
      This paper is concerned with the problem of ranking Lorenz curves in situations where the Lorenz curves intersect and no unambiguous ranking can be attained without introducing weaker ranking criteria than first-degree ...

    • The causal interpretation of two-stage least squares with multiple instrumental variables 

      Mogstad, Magne; Torgovitsky, Alexander; Walters, Christopher R. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Empirical researchers often combine multiple instrumental variables (IVs) for a single treatment using two-stage least squares (2SLS). When treatment effects are heterogeneous, a common justification for including multiple ...

    • Tidlig læring og sosial mobilitet: Norske barns muligheter til å lykkes i utdanningsløpet og arbeidslivet 

      Mogstad, Magne; Rege, Mari (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2009)
      Familiebakgrunn har stor betydning for barns utvikling. Flere internasjonale studier viser at skoleprestasjoner, utdanningsnivå, arbeidsmarkedstilknytning og lønn er avhengige av familiebakgrunn. Spesielt viser studiene ...
