COVID-19 and income profile: How communities in the United States responded to mobility restrictions in the pandemic's early stages [PDF]
Regional Science Policy & Practice. 15(2023)541-559, 2020 Mobility interventions in communities play a critical role in containing a pandemic at an early stage. The real-world practice of social distancing can enlighten policymakers and help them implement more efficient and effective control measures. A lack of such research using real-world observations initiates this article.

Large cities are less efficient for sustainable transport: The ABC of mobility [PDF]
, 2022 The use of cars in cities has many negative impacts on its population, including pollution, noise and the use of space. Yet, detecting factors that reduce automobile dependency is a serious challenge, particularly across different regions. Here we model the use of different modes of transport in a city by aggregating active mobility (A), public ...

Trends in Intergenerational Income Mobility [PDF]
Review of Economics and Statistics, 2009 Previous studies of recent U.S. trends in intergenerational income mobility have produced widely varying results, partly because of large sampling errors. By making more efficient use of the available information in the Panel Study of Income Dynamics, we generate more reliable estimates of the recent time-series variation in intergenerational mobility.

Trends in Income Inequality, Pro-Poor Income Growth and Income Mobility [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2003 We provide an analytical framework within which changes in income inequality over time are related to the pattern of income growth across the income range and the reshuffling of individuals in the income pecking order. We use the framework first to explain how it was possible both for the poor to have fared badly relatively to the rich in the USA ...

The Political Economy of Intergenerational Income Mobility [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2010 The intergenerational elasticity of income is considered one of the best measures of the degree to which a society gives equal opportunity to its members. While much research has been devoted to measuring this reduced-form parameter, less is known about its underlying structural determinants.

Income Mobility and Mixing in North Macedonia [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 This study presents the inaugural analysis of income mobility in North Macedonia from 1995-2021 using the Mixing Time and Mean First Passage Time (MFPT) metrics. We document larger mobility (in terms of Mixing Time) during the '90s, with and decreasing trend (in terms of mobility) until 1999.

Identifying latent shared mobility preference segments in low-income communities: ride-hailing, fixed-route bus, and mobility-on-demand transit [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Concepts of Mobility-on-Demand (MOD) and Mobility as a Service (MaaS), which feature the integration of various shared-use mobility options, have gained widespread popularity in recent years. While these concepts promise great benefits to travelers, their heavy reliance on technology raises equity concerns as socially disadvantaged population groups ...

INCOME INEQUALITY, MOBILITY, AND THE ACCUMULATION OF CAPITAL [PDF]
Macroeconomic Dynamics, 2013 We examine the determinants of income mobility and inequality in a Ramsey model with elastic labor supply and heterogeneous wealth and ability. Both agents with lower wealth and those with greater ability tend to supply more labor, implying that labor supply decisions may have an equalizing or unequalizing effect depending on the relative importance of
