The Yale Labor Survey (YLS) used an online panel from YouGov to replicate statistics from the Current Population Survey, the government’s main source of household labor market statistics. The YLS’s advantages include its timeliness, its low cost, and its ability to develop new questions quickly to study labor market patterns during the pandemic. The results of the YLS show that online surveys can be used to gather economic and demographic data with reasonable accuracy and at low cost. Such surveys can therefore be useful complements to less-frequent government surveys, particularly when the labor market is stressed and real-time data are especially valuable.","PeriodicalId":53705,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Economic and Social Measurement","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44853839","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}

A consumer price index typically targets a conditional COLI, which evaluates price change given set of preferences. An unconditional COLI aims to also capture the welfare effects of changing tastes, but it requires stronger assumptions. Using retail scanner data for food and beverage products, I find COLIs conditioning on current period tastes exceed those conditioning on prior period tastes. Consistent with previous studies, I find an unconditional COLI tends to reflect negative direct contributions from taste change.","PeriodicalId":53705,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Economic and Social Measurement","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46814359","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}

However, survey estimates can be subject to nonresponse bias. This paper primarily assesses the potential for nonresponse bias in six utilization estimates from the Clinical Preventive Services Self-Administered Questionnaire (PSAQ) survey. The article highlights several findings. First, the eligible PSAQ sample person’s selective nonresponse associated with influenza vaccinations and blood pressure check-ups reported in the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey provides indirect evidence of overestimating the utilization of those services in the PSAQ survey. Second, the study found a few weighting class variables correlated with PSAQ response propensity and survey variables. Third, surprisingly, base-weighted estimates of preventive service utilization changed little despite multiple post-survey adjustments, suggesting no substantial nonresponse bias. Additionally, the study finds moderate to near-perfect concordance in responses to selected preventive service questions across interview modes.","PeriodicalId":53705,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Economic and Social Measurement","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41799175","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}

We note two limitations of this approach: (1) the data for the period after winter is available only later, so estimates of excess winter mortality are not timely; (2) unusually high or low numbers of deaths in the non-winter periods can affect estimates. We propose an alternative statistic based on the application of standard seasonal adjustment procedures. We compare the approaches and present some illustrative analyses. The new statistic provides a more objective and timely official series, but is susceptible to revisions, which are shown to be small in practice. We recommend it as the basis of more detailed monitoring and modelling.","PeriodicalId":53705,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Economic and Social Measurement","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49062511","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 focus is the wage effect of small distance geographic mobility (micro-mobility) during job seeking. The results identify limitations on geographic micro-mobility as a source of wage disparity in the re-employment market. The study isolates persistent gender differences in geographic mobility rates and hypothesizes this as a potential source of gender-wage disparity in both the re-employment and greater labor market. The data and methods are unique. The dataset is Indiana administrative wage records over a ten-year period for individuals that experience unemployment episodes. The study assesses unemployment as an exogenous shock on wages to determine underlying influences in the labor market.

We find very similar distributions of net wealth in the two surveys between the 25th and 90th percentiles, but substantially higher wealth in the SCF at the top of the distribution. Both surveys show an increase in wealth inequality between 1998 and 2016, first mostly due to increased wealth at the top, and, after 2012, due to an increase in the share of households with very little wealth as well. Both surveys agree that wealth inequality by education and race, already substantial in 1998, increased further by 2016.","PeriodicalId":53705,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Economic and Social Measurement","volume":"45 3-4 1","pages":"215-236"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45993474","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}

Additional analyses suggest official estimates of food security among households with children are robust to this multidimensionality.

Moreover, it presents estimated consumer demand functions based on the two types of microdata for the same households.

We assess the validity of the food insecurity measure in the PSID by comparing it to the CPS. We find that, although estimated food insecurity rates in the PSID are lower than those in the CPS, the trends over time in the two datasets are similar, and the rates converge from the 1999–2003 period to the 2015–17 period.
