Detailed Decompositions in Generalized Linear Models

Diskussionsschriften from Universitaet Bern, Departement Volkswirtschaft

Abstract: We propose a new approach for performing detailed decompositions of average outcome differentials, which can be applied to all types of generalized linear models. A simulation exercise demonstrates that our method produces more convincing results than existing methods. An empirical application to the immigrant-native wage differential in Switzerland is presented.
