"This paper tests the assimilation hypothesis with Norwegian data. Using both cross-section and cohort analyses, the results show that the 1970-1979 immigrant cohort experienced an earnings growth of about 11% between 1980 and 1990, when their earnings profile was compared to that of natives. This is lower than the 19% assimilation rate predicted by the cross-section method. On the contrary, the results reveal a rapid earnings divergence across cohorts, and between the 1960-1969 cohort and natives."
本文使用挪威的数据检验同化假说。通过横截面分析和队列分析,结果显示,与本土居民相比,1970 - 1979年移民队列在1980年至1990年间收入增长了约11%。这低于横截面方法预测的19%的同化率。相反,结果显示不同队列之间以及1960 - 1969年队列与本土居民之间收入迅速分化。
