Spatial aggregation and resampling expansion of big surveys: An analysis of wage inequality
2020
Income inequality is becoming a growing concern, worldwide, with wage inequality being the root cause of its recent escalation. With the aim of adding to the knowledge on this subject, this paper focuses on the spatial dimension of the problem, an aspect which has received less attention in the literature. We identify the determinants of inequality in wage distribution in Spain at a provincial level using the microdata of the Structure of Earnings Survey (N = 216,769) and estimate their impact from a spatial perspective. Spatial computation of wage concentrations, however, reduces the sample size to just 52 observations, leading to model challenges. To overcome this problem, we adopt a supe…
COVID-19 and the Housework Gender Division: Traditional or New Gender Patterns?
2023
Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the gender dimension of its more visible socio-economic impacts has been the topic of study by several researchers. The current paper takes this further by focusing on the invisible chores done in the families at home.

We analyze whether people did more housework during the lockdown period than before it, the way this housework was distributed between women and men, and whether this has changed since the end of lockdown. The empirical analyses point to a new trend in the housework gender gap: differences between men and women have…
Más allá de la brecha salarial de género
2019
espanolLa desigualdad de genero, y en particular la desigualdad salarial de genero, ha sido considerada una prioridad politica en muchos paises durante las ultimas decadas, con el foco puesto en reducir la llamada brecha salarial, es decir, en buscar una convergencia en media para los salarios de hombres y mujeres. Una aproximacion de medias, sin embargo, no implica distribuciones salariales mas justas (totales y de genero). Utilizando los microdatos de una muestra nacionalmente representativa de la poblacion ocupada de Espana (N = 216,769), descomponemos la desigualdad salarial total en desigualdad salarial femenina y masculina (intra-grupos) y desigualdad de genero (entre-grupos) y explor…
