Applying a multilevel approach to the 2001-2016 Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) data, we assess the impact of social support experienced by the parents during an individual’s childhood on the individual’s capacity to establish adequate social support in adult life. The level of social support experienced by the parents is measured during childhood/adolescence. \u0000 \u0000Our findings show that, in addition to individual characteristics and other parental outcomes, the social support experienced by parents is an important predictor of the level of social support experienced by young adults. In particular, the mother’s social support is an important predictor of the level of social support experienced by young female adults, while the father’s social support is an important predictor of the level of social support experienced by young male adults. This evidence is further supported in an alternative specification based on sibling observations accounting for family fixed effects, finding that some individuals experience more social support when they are aged in their twenties than other individuals as a result of the family environment in childhood. In particular, social support experienced by parents explains about 16% of the initial family variance experienced by siblings.","PeriodicalId":331095,"journal":{"name":"Melbourne Institute: Applied Economic & Social Research Working Paper Series","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125206306","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Kaplan, Yuting Zhang, Judith Liu","doi":"10.2139/ssrn.3690078","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.3690078","url":null,"abstract":"The Affordable Care Act included a provision to eliminate the Medicare prescription drug coverage gap. The policy was phased in by gradually diminishing the gap each year between 2011-2020. This provides a natural experiment to conduct an in-depth study of how the policy affected medication use, which has implications for other benefit designs that vary cost sharing throughout the year. Using 2007-2016 Medicare claims data, we estimate the effects of closing-the-gap policy with a difference-in-differences approach that compares changes in medication use before and after policy between non-subsidized beneficiaries and a subset of Medicare beneficiaries who have not been affected by the policy. To account for the gradual phase-in of policy changes and possible learning effects, we examine the dynamic effects using an event study difference-in-differences model. Importantly, around the same time as the coverage gap closure, several blockbuster drugs that are commonly used by the Medicare population experienced patent expiration and began to see generic entry. To isolate the effect of coverage gap closure from patent expirations, we further use monthly prescription drug event data to more accurately track initial generic entry by therapeutic class. We find that filling the gap significantly reduced individuals’ out-of-pocket spending on branded drugs and increased the number of prescriptions filled for branded drugs. Consistent with the policy design, people who fell in the gap, were at older ages, or had coexisting chronic conditions saw a larger reduction in the amount they paid for prescription drugs. Without controlling for generic entry, the effect of the policy on utilization is underestimated for branded drugs and overestimated for generic drugs.","PeriodicalId":331095,"journal":{"name":"Melbourne Institute: Applied Economic & Social Research Working Paper Series","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116982815","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study uses longitudinal data from the Journeys Home survey and methods that address concerns related to reverse causality and endogenous selection into homelessness. The findings reveal that low levels of employment among homeless people can be attributed primarily to their higher probabilities of exiting employment. The negative association between homelessness and employment entry is much weaker in both magnitude and significance. This finding contrasts with what one would expect given the perception in the literature, i.e. that the difficulty of finding employment is a major contributing factor behind the poor rates of employment among homeless people. The significant positive association between homelessness and the probability of exiting employment seems to be mainly driven by unobserved person-specific characteristics, which increase a person’s chances of being homeless and of leaving employment. Once the effect of these unobserved confounding characteristics is considered, homelessness per se has no s gnificant impact on either employment entry or exit.","PeriodicalId":331095,"journal":{"name":"Melbourne Institute: Applied Economic & Social Research Working Paper Series","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133298651","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
