Seminar: "Mobility For All: Representative Intergenerational Mobility Estimates"
Elisa Jacome (Stanford University) We present the first estimates of long-run trends in intergenerational relative mobility for samples that are representative of the full U.S.-born population. Harmonizing all surveys that ask about father's occupation and own family income, we develop a mobility measure that allows for the inclusion of non-whites and women for the 1910s-1970s birth cohorts.
