Economics Bulletin, 2016, vol. 36, issue 3, 1287-1294

Abstract: The method of Multivariate Adaptive Regression Splines is applied to international data to evaluate earnings functions. This reveals interaction effects not highlighted in more traditional analyses. In particular, a small number of nonlinear country-specific effects in the relationship between education and earnings is identified.
