This paper examines 1,313 regions from 46 developing countries to document that individuals working outside the context of a firm (own-account workers and family workers) are consistently overrepresented among poorest in their labor markets.JEL Codes: I32, J21.

Using ethanol as a solvent, heterocyclic hexagonal rings for 2-amino-pyran derivatives (I33-I40) were produced by reacting mole of chalcones with malononitrile. Physical properties such melting point, colour, and molecular weight spectroscopic measurements the infrared spectrum, [1H-NMR], [13C-NMR] spectrum used to confirm accuracy prepared compounds' compositions. The biological activity vario...

The J = 3 − 2 sub-mm line of 12CO has been observed with the Heinrich-Hertz-Telescope (HHT) toward a sample of 28 nearby galaxies, and toward Arp 220. All sources are detected. This is the largest extragalactic sample of CO 3 − 2 spectra published so far. The 3 − 2 line fluxes, I32, are compared to 1 − 0 and 2 − 1 fluxes measured with the IRAM 30m telescope. Model calculations show that the I32...

This paper estimates the long-run effects of childhood Medicaid eligibility on adult health and economic outcomes using program’s original introduction ( 1966–1970) its mandated coverage welfare recipients. The design compares cohorts born in different years relative to implementation, states with preexisting welfare-based eligibility. Early reduces mortality disability, increases employment, r...

We report measurements of millimeter wave emission from a rippled-field magnetron (crossed-field FEL). This is a novel source of coherent radiation in which electrons move in quasi-circular orbits under the combined action of a radial electric field, a uniform axial magnetic field and an azimuthally periodic wiggler magnetic field. We observe %300kW of RF power in a spectral line whose frequenc...

We show how to minimize the probability of misclassifying individuals as being poor or not poor when data on some of their relevant attributes are missing, but an estimate of the population distribution of attributes is available. JEL Classification Codes: D63, I32

Social Security in Belgium: Distributive Outcomes The paper analyzes the link between old-age income programs and economic outcomes in Belgium. We use a simulation methodology to construct an average pension generosity variable. Our regression analysis explores the link with distributional outcomes in income, consumption and more subjective indicators. Results document the weak link between ave...

In this paper we make several contributions to the literature of poverty measurement. We …rst identify a most plausible source for the fuzziness in poverty identi…cation which renders a natural and direct estimation of the poverty membership function; we then provide an axiomatic characterization for an important class of fuzzy poverty measures; and we …nally derive a set of crisp dominance con...
