Estimating the Personal Distribution of Income with Adjustment for within- Family Variation
利用1970和1979年当前人口调查数据，估计家庭内儿童与成人收入分配比例，计算个人收入分布，发现其尾部比常规分布更厚。
The 1970 and 1979 Current Population Surveys are used to compute the personal distribution of income. The major innovation in this paper is that all individuals in the household are not treated identically. In particular, children receive a different proportion of income than do adults. That proportion is estimated. Its variations with respect to household characteristics are discussed, and a final distribution of personal income is computed. That distribution has considerably fatter tails than does the one normally used.
