Education and persistence of earnings shocks

Chiara Dal Bianco () and Francesco Maura

Economics Letters, 2020, vol. 196, issue C

Abstract: We estimate Arellano, Blundell and Bonhomme’s (2017) nonlinear earnings process on Italian data. We show that the persistence of earnings history is lower for low-educated households than for high-educated ones, with low-educated households taking longer to recover from bad shocks.
