Der Beitrag beschäftigt sich mit der Frage, ob und inwiefern Informationen über den sozioökonomischen Status – gemessen an der beruflichen Stellung und dem verfügbaren Haushaltseinkommen – zuverlässige Aussagen über die Bereitschaft, im Ruhestandsalter weiter zu arbeiten, treffen können. Kontrolliert werden diese Betrachtungen mit weiteren beruflichen und individuellen Merkmalen. Datengrundlage ist ...

In this article we present estimates of the tempo-adjusted total fertility rate in Western and Eastern Germany from 1955 to 2008. Tempo adjustment of the total fertility rate (TFR) requires data on the annual number of births by parity and age of the mother. Since official statistics do not provide such data for West Germany as well as Eastern Germany from 1990 on we used alternative data sources which ...

This article studies the estimation of conditional quantiles of counts. Given the discreteness of the data, some smoothness must be artificially imposed on the problem. We show that it is possible to smooth the data in a way that allows inference to be performed using standard quantile regression techniques. The performance and implementation of the estimators are illustrated by simulations and an ...

Studies using the Gini Index as a measure of income inequality have consistently found a positive and significant effect of the Gini on both happiness and life satisfaction. Two new measures used here – the ratio of persons in the lowest income decile relative to the number in the highest, and the ratio of the number in the lowest social class relative to the number in the highest, in a given country ...

Hedonic theory assumes that changes in land prices and wage rates eliminate the utility advantages of differing locations. Using happiness data from the German socio-economic panel this paper empirically tests whether regional utility differences exist and if so whether utility levels show any tendency to converge over time. Empirical analysis reveals substantial differences in utility over different ...
