DRDECOMP: Stata module to estimate Shapley value of growth and distribution components of changes in poverty indicators
February 21, 2019 · View on GitHub
drdecomp implements the shapley value of the Datt and Ravallion (1992) decomposition of changes in a welfare indicator into growth and distribution, however, following the shapley and non parametric methodology suggested by Shorrocks (1999/2012) and Kolenikov and Shorrocks (2003). For examples of applications please see Azevedo and Sanfelice (2012) and Ferreira et al (2012).
