Very cool. Martin and Tate Twinam use not only occupation (as in the widely used OCCSCORE variable) but industry and several geographic/demographic vars to predict income using LASSO, with fitted values easily downloadable/mergeable in Stata. Paper forthcoming in EEH. 1/2 @MartinHSaavedra/1184109304061845504On twitter.com

Aside from simply giving better income imputations, this tool should be useful—though it will require *very* thoughtful application—for understanding heterogeneous effects of many historical treatments across race, geography, sex, and age. I’m excited. 2/2Permalink On twitter.com
