摘要

本研究通过复制新加坡全国青年调查在美国收入动态小组研究中的局限性,比较了新加坡和美国的代际收入流动性。平均估计收入弹性几乎相同:新加坡为0.26,美国为0.27。为了反映永久地位,这两个国家的流动性分别转化为0.45和0.47,与国际上相比,这两个国家的流动性相对较低。考虑到两国的经济现实、福利制度、教育制度和劳动力结构相似,类似的流动性发现并不令人惊讶。政策制定者面临着在保持全球竞争力的同时克服不流动性和不平等的艰巨挑战。

Intergenerational Earnings Mobility in Singapore and the United States
This study compared intergenerational earnings mobility in Singapore and the United States by replicating the limitations in the Singapore National Youth Survey on the U.S. Panel Study of Income Dynamics. The mean estimated earnings elasticities are almost identical: 0.26 in Singapore and 0.27 in the United States. Transformed to 0.45 and 0.47 respectively to reflect permanent status, mobility in the two countries is moderately low compared internationally. The finding of similar mobility is not surprising given that the economic realities, welfare systems, education regimes, and labor structures in the two countries are similar. Policy makers face the daunting challenge of overcoming immobility and inequality while maintaining global competitiveness.
