Datasets and empirical codes for the article “Identification of earnings dynamics using rotating samples over short periods: the case of Chile”, by Carlos Madeira, 12 September 2025
Description
This package has the final datasets compiled as the parameters of the earnings dynamics model with mean income growth, wage volatility and employment transitions for all demographic groups as panel time series for Chile. I also publish all the codes required to replicate the empirical analysis of the paper.
Files
Steps to reproduce
"M_tables_figures.do" is the main file that calls all the other files sequentially to implement all the analysis of the article. Note that researchers only need the global paths specified in the main file. Each one of the other codes can be run separately. It is not required to run the codes sequentially. Interested researchers can simply run the specific code that is of interest. All tables and figures are easy to understand. Researchers can easily change the figures from panel data across income quintiles to some other variable, such as education, age, gender or industry of occupation. Each do file has the title for the Tables (2 to 9) and Figures (1 to 12) that are replicated in the code.
