This article considers the estimation of the structure of wages in union and nonunion sectors.
It proposes an estimator that extends standard panel data techniques to the case in which …

We propose a generalization of the linear quantile regression model to accommodate
possibilities afforded by panel data. Specifically, we extend the correlated random …

This paper studies the effects of unions on the structure of wages, using an estimation
technique that explicitly accounts for misclassification errors in reported union status, and …

We propose a generalization of the linear quantile regression model to accommodate
possibilities afforded by panel data. Specifically, we extend the correlated random …

Wage differences between the union and nonunion sectors result from sectoral variation in
both worker characteristics, such as educational attainment and job experience, and labor …

This paper re-examines the question, recently raised in this journal by Bloch and Kuskin, of
whether wages are determined differently in the union and nonunion sectors. Whereas …

This study uses microdata from the Labour Canada Wages Survey to examine the effect of
unions on wage determination in Canada. Using Heckman's procedure to correct for …

This paper uses broadly comparable micro data at the level of the individual to examine the
extent to which union relative wage effects vary across groups and through time. The main …

Abstract Analysis of the effects of unionism on resource allocation requires knowledge of the
magnitude of the union/competition wage differential. A method is presented for determining …

We estimate the union premium for young men over a period of declining unionization (1980–
87) through a procedure which identifies the alternative sources of the endogeneity of union …
