Ophthalmic Epidemiology, 2021
The aim of this study was to investigate economic inequality in cataract surgery and to decompose it into its determinants using Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition.The Tehran Geriatric Eye Study is a population-based cross-sjal study that was done on individuals above 60 years using stratified cluster random sampling.

Regional Consumption Inequality in China: An Oaxaca-Blinder Decomposition at the Prefectural Level
Growth and Change, 2017Sharp 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]
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.

Wage discrimination in Zambia: an extension of the Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition
Applied Economics Letters, 2000Recently, 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.

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 ...

Exploiting information from path dependency in Oaxaca–Blinder decomposition procedures
Applied Economics Letters, 2004This 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.

Using the oaxaca–blinder decomposition as an empirical tool to analyze racial disparities in obesity
Obesity, 2014ObjectiveRacial disparities in obesity in the US are often assumed to reflect racial disparities in socio‐economic status, diet and physical‐activity. We present an econometric method that helps examine this by “decomposing” the racial gap in body‐mass index (BMI) into how much can be explained by racial differences in “standard” predictors of BMI, and

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2009
This paper argues that the Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition incompletely decomposes the mean wage difference between two comparative groups into a portion that is explainable by differences in characteristics, and a portion that is attributable to differences in the valuation of these characteristics. As a result, studies on earnings inequalities that rely
