我们的目标是准确估计加拿大代际收入流动性的程度。我们使用了大约 40 万对父子的所得税信息，发现代际收入弹性约为 0.2。收入流动性往往略大于收入流动性，但非参数技术揭示了这两种关系中显着的非线性。收入分配低端的代际收入流动性大于收入分配高端的代际收入流动性，并且在其他地方呈现倒V形。代际收入流动性大致遵循相同的模式，但收入分配顶层的流动性要低得多。
Our objective is to obtain an accurate estimate of the degree of intergenerational income mobility in Canada. We use income tax information on about 400,000 father-son pairs, and find intergenerational earnings elasticities to be about 0.2. Earnings mobility tends to be slightly greater than income mobility, but non- parametric techniques uncover significant non-linearities in both of these relationships. Intergenerational earnings mobilty is greater at the lower end of the income distribution than at the upper end, and displays an inverted V-shape elsewhere. Intergenerational income mobility follows roughly the same pattern, but is much lower at the top of the income distribution.
