Bayesian Inference for Multidimensional Welfare Comparisons
David Gunawan, William Griffiths, Duangkamon Chotikapanich
Using both single-index measures and stochastic dominance concepts, we show how Bayesian inference can be used to make multivariate welfare comparisons. A four-dimensional distribu…
Inequality in Education: A Comparison of Australian Indigenous and Nonindigenous Populations
David Gunawan, William Griffiths, Duangkamon Chotikapanich
Educational achievement distributions for Australian indigenous and nonindigenous populations in the years 2001, 2006, 2014 and 2017 are considered. Bayesian inference is used to a…
Comparisons of Australian Mental Health Distributions
David Gunawan, William Griffiths, Duangkamon Chotikapanich
Bayesian nonparametric estimates of Australian mental health distributions are obtained to assess how the mental health status of the population has changed over time and to compar…
Posterior Probabilities for Lorenz and Stochastic Dominance of Australian Income Distributions
David Gunawan, William E. Griffiths, Duangkamon Chotikapanich
Using HILDA data for the years 2001, 2006, 2010, 2014 and 2017, we compute posterior probabilities for dominance for all pairwise comparisons of income distributions in these years…
