A discrete choice model for labor supply and child care
(Discussion Papers;No. 315, Working paper, 2002)Abstract: A discrete choice model for labor supply and child care for mothers of preschoolers is presented. The mothers are assumed to make choices from a finite set of job possibilities and from a finite set of child ... -
An alternative approach to labor supply modeling : emphasizing job-type as choice variable
(Discussion Papers;No. 550, Working paper, 2008)Abstract: Traditional labor supply analysis is based on the assumption that workers only have preferences over consumption and hours of work, and are able to choose consumption and hours freely within the budget constraint. ... -
Analyzing labor supply behavior with latent job opportunity sets and institutional choice constraints
(Discussion Papers;No. 344, Working paper, 2003)Abstract: In this paper we discuss a general framework for analyzing labor supply behavior in the presence of complicated budget- and quantity constraints of which some are unobserved. The point of departure is that an ... -
Causal effects of paternity on children and parents
(Discussion Papers;No. 657, Working paper, 2011)Abstract: In this paper we use a parental leave reform directed towards fathers to identify the causal effects of paternity leave on children's and parents' outcomes. We document that paternity leave causes fathers to ... -
Demand and supply of labor by education towards 2030. Linking demographic and macroeconomic models for Norway
(Rapporter;2010/39, Report, 2010)Because of globalization and technological progress, most OECD-countries have seen a considerable growth in the demand for labor with higher skills and educational levels the past decades. In many countries, supply has ... -
Early retirement provision for elderly displaced workers
(Discussion Paper;No. 985, Working paper, 2022-08)This paper studies the economic effects on re-employment and program substitution behavior among elderly displaced workers who exogenously lose eligibility for their early retirement option. We use detailed Norwegian ... -
Econometric analysis of labor supply in a life cycle context with uncertainty
(Discussion Papers;No. 21, Working paper, 1987)The paper considers a recent econometric approach for analysing labor supply in a life cycle context. The model we present extends MaCurdy's (1982) model in that the wage rate is assumed to depend on previous labor market ... -
How are educational groups affected by economic shocks and trends?
(Rapporter;2011/50, Report, 2011)Since the early 1990s, Statistics Norway has produced model-based projections on demand and supply of labor by education. The demand and supply side has been modeled separately, but in a consistent manner so that it has ... -
How financial incentives induce disability insurance recipients to return to work
(Discussion papers (Statistisk sentralbyrå. Forskningsavdelingen);No. 685, Working paper, 2012)Disability Insurance (DI) programs have long been criticized by economists for apparent work disincentives. Some countries have recently modified their programs such that DI recipients are allowed to keep some of their ... -
Labor supply as a choice among latent job opportunities : a practical empirical approach
(Discussion Papers;No. 481, Working paper, 2006)Abstract: In this paper, we discuss aspects of a particular framework for modeling labor supply and the application of this approach in practical policy simulation experiments. This modeling framework differs from the ... -
Labor supply in Italy
(Discussion Paper;No. 92, Working paper, 1993-07)The present study tries to overcome some of the shortcomings of the standard empirical labor supply models by applying an alternative approach which allows for complex non-convex budget sets, highly non-linear labor supply ... -
Labor supply of retiring couples and heterogeneity in household decision-making structure
(Discussion Papers;No. 404, Working paper, 2005)Abstract: This paper analyzes the labor market participation behavior of retiring couples in Norway. To account for the unobserved heterogeneity in decision-making structure within the household, I formulate a mixed ... -
Labor supply with non-convex budget sets, hours restriction and non-pecuniary job-attributes
(Discussion Paper;No. 76, Working paper, 1992-09)The basic assumption in this paper is that a household labor supply decision can be considered as choice from a set of discrete alternatives, called matches. The matches are characterized by attributes such as hours of ... -
The LOTTE system of tax microsimulation models
(Discussion Paper;No. 1009, Working paper, 2023-11)Microsimulation models of the LOTTE system are key tools for tax policy-making in Norway and are extensively used in the budget process. The aim of this paper is to give an overview of the different modules in the LOTTE ... -
Modeling the choice of working when the set of job opportunities is latent
(Discussion Papers;No. 265, Working paper, 2000)In this paper we analyze the decision of "working" versus "not working" within a discrete choice framework, where number of available jobs is confined and related to individual characteristics. In this way the market ... -
Public policies and the employment dynamics among new mothers : a comparison of Finland, Norway and Sweden
(Discussion Papers;No. 263, Working paper, 1999)This paper compares the employment patterns of women after first and second birth in Finland, Norway and Sweden during 1972-92, focusing on the impact of parental leave and childcare programs on the transitions to full-time ... -
Sectoral labor supply, choice restrictions and functionalform
(Discussion Papers;No. 388, Working paper, 2004)Abstract: In this paper we discuss a general framework for analyzing labor supply behavior in the presence of complicated budget- and quantity constraints of which some are unobserved. The individual’s labor supply ... -
Simulating labor supply behavior when workers have preferences for job opportunities and face nonlinear budget constraints
(Discussion Papers;No. 488, Working paper, 2006)Abstract: This paper analyzes the properties of a particular sectoral labor supply model developed in Dagsvik and Strøm (2006). The model is estimated on labor supply data for married women in Norway 1994. In this model, ... -

(Discussion Papers;No. 230, Working paper, 1998)This paper discusses methodological principles for social evaluation of tax systems and tax reforms when concern is primarily turned to who gains and who loses. The discussion is followed by an empirical analysis based on ... -
