Distributional Change: Assessing the Contribution of Household Income Sources*
提出一种分解方法，量化家庭收入分布变化中收入来源关联变化与边际分布变化的贡献，并应用于卢森堡2004-2013年数据，发现配偶收入、公共转移和税收的关联变化降低了贫困家庭收入份额。
Abstract We develop a decomposition of changes in household income distributions by factor components to quantify the contribution of changes over time in the association between sources of income and changes in their (marginal) distributions. The two components are broken down to isolate the contribution of specific income sources. An application to the change in the distribution of household incomes in Luxembourg between 2004 and 2013 reveals contrasted results: increased association between spouse earnings, public transfers and taxes depressed the income share of poor households while changes in marginal distributions increased incomes in the upper half of the distribution.
