...Inhoe Ku; Wonjin Lee; Seoyun Lee; Kyounghoon Han Abstract In this article, we examined what has contributed to the worsening income inequality and poverty between 1996 and 2011 in South Korea. We used a rank-preserving exchange method and a conditional reweighting method to assess the roles...

... A similar mechanism drives the results (among women) when white-collar status is included in the reweight after conditioning on income and education. 7 This feature is shared with other decomposition and standardization techniques. As Kitagawa ( 1955 :1148) explained, “The difference between two...

.... First, we use a reweighting decomposition to quantify the fraction of height disparities that can be explained by SES. Second, we use regression to show that the remaining gap can be explained by the fraction of a child’s locality that outranks her family in the caste hierarchy. The further...

In contrast, propensity score–based reweighting techniques involve selecting variables to improve the balance, which can imply neglecting theoretically important...

The results suggest that compositional changes explain only 22% of the decline...

..., it is not obvious how to derive ATE, TOT, or TOC estimates from such an analysis. Deriving these estimates is straightforward when using an inverse probability weighting (IPW) strategy described by Morgan and Todd ( 2008 ). Here the predicted probabilities of treatment are used to reweight the treated and control...

...-based idea, I combine a reweighting method ( DiNardo et al. 1996 ) with the iGini measure proposed by Liao (2019) , which decomposes the Gini index into an additive sum of each individual unit's contribution to the overall inequality. I extend this approach to the squared coefficient of variation (CV2...

.... Following the seminal contribution of Rosenbaum and Rubin ( 1983 ), one can remove estimation bias by using propensity score matching, where the propensity score is defined as the probability of assignment to the treatment conditional on pretreatment characteristics—say, Z. More recent work has shown...

The ratio of stillbirths to infant deaths (2.8) is closer to the European and North American ratio (2 to 2.5) than to the ratio for Japan (over 4) or Hong Kong (over 6) (Coale and Banister 1994). This point, however, is conditional on a defect of the data. The ratios...
