Abstract

This is the second of three chapters on the Difference-in-Differences (D-in-D) technique. An empirical case study of the Affordable Care Act on entrepreneurship offers another illustration of the basic D-in-D model. This chapter introduces a new way, pre-trends analysis, to probe the model’s assumptions, and a new variant of D-in-D, the fixed effect D-in-D model. It also reviews some of the extensive literature that has analyzed both health and labor-market topics using the ACS data. This chapter also revisits a descriptive study on lawyer earnings, first introduced in Chapter 1 , and extends it to software developer earnings. End of Chapter Review Questions reinforce the concepts introduced in the chapter, and give the reader ideas for original research they can carry out on labor and health questions.
