Standard Errors for the Blinder-Oaxaca Decomposition [PDF]

, 2005
The decomposition technique introduced by Blinder (1973) and Oaxaca (1973) is widely used to study outcome differences between groups. For example, the technique is commonly applied to the analysis of the gender wage gap. However, despite the procedure's frequent use, very little attention has been paid to the issue of estimating the sampling variances

OAXACA: Stata module to compute the Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition

, 2008
-oaxaca- computes the so-called Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition, which is often used to analyze wage gaps by sex or race. Older versions of this routine are available as -oaxaca9- and -oaxaca8-.

A computational trick for calculating the Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition and its standard error [PDF]

Economics Bulletin, 2007
To compute the Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition and associated standard errors a practitioner needs to be comfortable using vector and matrix software manipulations. This paper proposes a computational trick for producing these computations by running an artificial regression.

Marginal effects and extending the Blinder–Oaxaca decomposition for nonlinear models [PDF]

, 2006
Students of racial and gender inequalities are often interested in knowing to what extent an observed group difference can be attributed to differences in returns to productive abilities (discrimination effect) or to differences in the average of productive abilities (endowment effect). The standard Blinder–Oaxaca decomposition technique, which applies

oaxaca: Blinder-Oaxaca Decomposition in R

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2014
This article introduces the R package oaxaca to perform the Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition, a statistical method that decomposes the gap in mean outcomes across two groups into a portion that is due to differences in group characteristics and a portion that cannot be explained by such differences.

Insights from the Blinder—Oaxaca Decomposition on Polarization in the US Senate

Quarterly Journal of Political Science, 2021
I study the change in polarization in the US Senate from the period 1947–1966 to 1995–2014. I use a decomposition approach to quantify how much of the increase in polarization between those two periods can be explained by the representation relationship with all voters versus the representation relationship with copartisans.

The Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition for linear regression models

The counterfactual decomposition technique popularized by Blinder (1973, Journal of Human Resources, 436–455) and Oaxaca (1973, International Economic Review, 693–709) is widely used to study mean outcome differences between groups.

An Extension of the Blinder-Oaxaca Decomposition Technique to Logit and Probit Models

2003
The Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition technique is widely used to identify and quantify the separate contributions of group differences in measurable characteristics, such as education, experience, marital status, and geographical differences to racial and gender gaps in outcomes.

Is franchising an additional financing source for franchisors? A Blinder–Oaxaca decomposition analysis

Tourism Economics, 2018
Numerous studies have used agency theory (Jensen and Meckling, 1976) and capital scarcity theory (Oxenfeldt and Kelly, 1969) to explain franchising motivations. Although both theories may in part account for why firms choose to franchise, past studies have not seriously considered the potential relationship between franchising and capital structures ...
