Modelling Household Income Dynamics

نویسنده

  • Stephen P. Jenkins
چکیده

This paper is about income and poverty dynamics and their socioeconomic correlates. The first half of the paper aims to establish some of the salient facts for Britain, applying the pioneering methods of Bane and Ellwood (1986). Important for poverty dynamics are changes in labour earnings from persons other than the household head, changes in non-labour income (including benefits), and changes in household composition, in addition to changes in the heads’ labour earnings. The second half of the paper is a review and critique of the multivariate modelling frameworks which might be used to explain and forecast these salient facts for Britain or elsewhere.

Short-Lived Shocks with Long-Lived Impacts? Household Income Dynamics in a Transition Economy

It is possible in theory that the persistent poverty that has emerged in many transition economies is due to underlying nonconvexities in the dynamics of household incomes, such that a vulnerable household will never recover from a sufficiently large but short-lived shock to its income. To test the theory we estimate a dynamic panel data model of household incomes with nonlinear dynamics and en...
