An Extension of the Blinder-Oaxaca Decomposition to Non-Linear Models [PDF]

In this paper, a general Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition is derived that can also be applied to non-linear models, which allows the differences in a non-linear outcome variable between two groups to be decomposed into a part that is explained by differences
