A Oaxaca–Blinder decomposition for count data models

Applied Economics Letters, 2010
Little research has examined the factors influencing differential adoption of organic farming practices by women and men farmers, a sector where women account for a significant and rapidly growing proportion of farmers. Female organic farmers adopt more crop disease management practices than male organic farmers and use a different portfolio of ...

Decomposition of inequality determinants of stressful events in Tehran; Oaxaca–Blinder analysis

International Journal of Human Rights in Healthcare, 2021
Purpose Social determinants of stressful events (SE) play an important role in justifying the cause of inequality in the experience of SE. The purpose of this study is to investigate the determinants that impact on inequality in the experience of SE.

The easiest way to estimate the Oaxaca–Blinder decomposition

Applied Economics Letters, 2013
This article studies the relation between the Oaxaca–Blinder decomposition and the estimated coefficient of a dummy variable for a linear regression. We calculate the unexplained part of the decomposition from the estimated coefficient of the dummy variable.

Semiparametric Estimation of Oaxaca-Blinder Decompositions with Continuous Groups

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2019
This paper considers Oaxaca-Blinder type decompositions with continuous groups. In particular, we decompose the differences between outcomes at a series of values of the group variable and at a particular value of the group variable into (i) a composition effect and (ii) a structure effect.

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.

Exploiting information from path dependency in Oaxaca–Blinder decomposition procedures

Applied Economics Letters, 2004
This paper argues that path dependency in Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition procedures should not be considered as a limitation and provides valuable information. Illustration is given for the evaluation of racial discrimination on health in South Africa for 1999.

Regional Consumption Inequality in China: An Oaxaca-Blinder Decomposition at the Prefectural Level

Growth and Change, 2017
Sharp regional differences in income and consumption patterns have characterized the Chinese development process. Focusing on the years 2007 and 2012, this work employs the Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition to assess the extent and the determinants of the urban/non-urban and coastal/inland disparity in consumption patterns.

Oaxaca/Blinder decompositions for nonlinear models [PDF]

open access: possible, 2007
This paper describes the estimation of a general Blinder–Oaxaca decomposition of the mean outcome differential of linear and nonlinear regression models. Departing from this general model, we show how it can be applied to different models with discrete and limited dependent variables.

Mean and quantile regression Oaxaca-Blinder decompositions with an application to caste discrimination

The Journal of Economic Inequality, 2017
This paper extends the Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition method to the quantile regression random-coefficients framework. Mean-based decompositions are obtained as the integration of the quantile regression decomposition process. This method allows identifying if the observed differences between two groups differ across quantiles, and if so, what is the ...

Wage discrimination in Zambia: an extension of the Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition

Applied Economics Letters, 2000
Recently, there has been growing interest in reducing gender and race discrimination. Hence, interest in exploring what causes the discriminatory wage gap has also grown. An often applied tool for this type of analysis is the Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition technique.
