..., descriptive statistics based on mean differences do not indicate which of EI and EE is most to blame for the weight gap. For this, we must rely on our decomposition analysis. Finally, the sample averages suggest that black females in the NHANES sample are, on average, younger than white females...

... in the IMDI was 23% in 1983, the first year of our analysis, but by 2013—the last year of our observational period—it had been reduced by almost seven-eighths to 3%. Given the differential trends in the IMDI between White and Black women, our following decomposition analysis focuses on two intervals...

We propose a method of decomposition analysis based on an assumption that covariates change continuously along an actual or hypothetical dimension. This assumption leads to a general model that logically justifies the additivity of covariate...

Although foreign-born and U.S.-born White mortality rates trended toward convergence over time, the foreign-born mortality penalty remained into the 1950s. A decomposition analysis finds that immigrants...
