Modelling Heterogeneous Dependence in a Copula‐Linked By‐Production Frontier: Evidence From French Dairy Farms

Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In agriculture, production technologies are often characterised by non‐linearities and stochastic dependence between outputs, particularly between desirable and undesirable outputs. This paper combines the copula‐based semi‐parametric framework for modelling heterogeneous dependence with the by‐production stochastic frontier approach and ...

Abstract We use matched employee–employer data from the UK to investigate the importance of social skills – in particular, teamwork and communication with co‐workers – as a driver of wage growth for workers with lower formal education. We find that in social skill tasks, a significant fraction of less educated workers enjoy wage progression with tenure,
