A flying start? Maternity leave benefits and long-run outcomes of children
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)We study a change in maternity leave entitlements in Norway. Mothers giving birth before July 1, 1977, were eligible for 12 weeks of unpaid leave, while those giving birth after that date were entitled to 4 months of paid ... -
A long term view on the short term co-movement of output and prices in a small open economy
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012-02)One assumption behind inflation targeting as objective for monetary policy is that inflation rates in the short run to some extent reflect output cycles. The present paper investigates the historical co-movements of output ... -

A New Latent Class to Fit Spatial Econometrics Models with Integrated Nested Laplace Approximations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)The new slm latent model for estimating spatial econometrics models using INLA has recently been introduced. It will be described briefly and its use will be demonstrated in the accompanying poster. -
A note on upward pricing pressure: the possibility of false positives
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Joseph Farrell and Carl Shapiro proposed a simple test of the possible upward pricing pressure (UPP) following a merger. They showed that the test may give false negatives—that is, indicate that a merger may not give an ... -

Adjusting for age effects in cross-sectional distributions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Income and wealth differ over the life cycle. In cross-sectional distri- butions of income or wealth, classical inequality measures such as the Gini, could therefore find substantial inequality even if everyone have the ... -
After "Raising the Bar'': applied maximum likelihood estimation of families of models in spatial econometrics.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Elhorst (2010) shows how the recent publication of LeSage and Pace (2009) in his expression “raises the bar” for our fitting of spatial econometrics models. By extending the family of models that deserve attention, Elhorst ... -
All the bottles in one basket? Evaluating the effect of intra-industry diversification on risk
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)This paper develops a framework using Monte Carlo simulation to examine risk/return properties of intra-industry product portfolio composition and diversification. We use product-level data covering all Swedish sales of ... -
An evasive topic: theorizing about the hidden economy
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)This paper reviews some central issues that arise in theorizing about tax evasion decisions and the hidden economy. It starts from the Allingham-Sandmo (1972) modelling of the tax evasion decision as a choice under ... -
An experimental study of prosocial motivation among criminals
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)The fact that criminal behavior typically has negative consequences for others provides a compelling reason to think that criminals lack prosocial motivation. This paper reports the results from two dictator game experiments ... -
Antarctic Tourism and Maritime Heritage
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010)Maritime activities in the Antarctic region date back to the eighteenth century. They evolved from exploration and discoveries to commercial enterprises, especially sealing, whaling and fishing. Antarctic tourism is a much ... -

Approximate Bayesian inference for spatial econometrics models
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)In this paper we explore the use of the Integrated Laplace Approximation (INLA) for Bayesian inference in some widely used models in Spatial Econometrics. Bayesian inference often relies on computationally intensive ... -

Baby booming inequality? Demographic change and earnings inequality in Norway, 1967–2000
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)In this paper, we demonstrate how age-adjusted inequality measures can be used to evaluate whether changes in inequality over time are due to changes in the age-structure. To this end, we use administrative data on ... -

Business Training in Tanzania: From Research-driven Experiment to Local Implementation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Field experiments documenting positive treatment effects have a strong policy message: scale up! However, such experiments are typically implemented under close supervision of the research group in charge of the study. In ... -
Bør den indirekte pressestøtten gis som momsfritak eller skattefradrag? :
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)Papiraviser er fritatt for moms. Dette representerer en indirekte subsidie i størrelsesorden 1,5 milliarder kroner per år. Skattefradrag for redaksjonelle kostnader har vært foreslått som et supplerende virkemiddel i en ...
