Relative purchasing power parity and the European monetary union: Evidence from eastern Europe
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)This paper examine whether relative purchasing power parity holds for Albania, Bulgaria, Croatia, FYR Macedonia, Romania and Turkey versus Germany over the period January 1999 to May 2013. We investigate the real ... -
Competitive in the lab, successful in the field?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)A number of lab experiments in recent years have analyzed people’s willingness to com-pete. But to what extent is competitive behavior in the lab associated with field choicesand outcomes? We address this question in a ... -
Global uro og norsk idyll: Makroøkonomiske lærdommer og utfordringer etter finanskrisen
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Artikkelen diskuterer hvordan finanskrisen som startet i 2007, påvirket verdensøkonomien generelt og Norge spesielt. En utfordring for innhenting etter krisen er høy offentlig og privat gjeld i mange land, noe som er et ... -
Do non-enforceable contracts matter? Evidence from an international lab experiment
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Many verifiable contracts are impossible or difficult to enforce. This applies to contracts among family and friends, contracts regulating market transactions, and sovereign debt contracts. Do such non-enforceable contracts ... -

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 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. -
Implementing Approximations to Extreme Eigenvalues and Eigenvalues of Irregular Surface Partitionings for use in SAR and CAR Models
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Good approximations of eigenvalues exist for the regular square and hexagonal tessellations. To complement this situation, spatial scientists need good approximations of eigenvalues for irregular tessellations. Starting ... -
Spatial diffusion and spatial statistics: revisting Hägerstrand’s study of innovation diffusion.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Torsten Hägerstrand’s 1953 study of innovation diffusion [1] was pathbreaking in many ways. It was based on an explicit micro-model of information spread, and on Monte Carlo simulation of the hypothesised spatial process. ... -

Comparing Implementations of Estimation Methods for Spatial Econometrics
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-01)Recent advances in the implementation of spatial econometrics model estimation tech- niques have made it desirable to compare results, which should correspond between im- plementations across software applications for ... -
Spatial Data Analysis with R-INLA with Some Extensions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-01)The integrated nested Laplace approximation (INLA) provides an interesting way of approximating the posterior marginals of a wide range of Bayesian hierarchical models. This approximation is based on conducting a Laplace ... -
Does grief transfer across generations? Bereavements during pregnancy and child outcomes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Using population data from Norway, we examine the effects of stress induced by the death of the mother’s parent during pregnancy on both the short-run and the long-run outcomes of the infant. Using a variety of empirical ... -
What Explains the Gender Gap in College Track Dropout?Experimental and Administrative Evidence.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)We exploit a unique data set, combining rich experimental data with high-quality administrative data, to study dropout from the college track in Norway, and why boys are more likely to drop out. The paper provides three ... -
Explaining the gender wage gap: Estimates from a dynamic model of job changes and hours changes.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)I address the causes of the gender wage gap with a new dynamic model of wage, hours, and job changes that permits me to decompose the gap into a portion due to gender differences in preferences for hours of work and in ... -
