Repository for the codes used for the analyses of Jani Erola & Elina Kilpi-Jakonen (2021) The role of partnering and assortative mating for income inequality: The case of Finland, 1991–2014

All analyses in the article were conducted using Stata in the Fiona remote access system of Statistics Finland. The data used is register-based Finnish Growth Environment dataset. It is based on a 10% sample of the Finnish population of 1980 that is matched with their children.

Complete Stata codes used are in five separate .do -files: data, recodes, descriptives, analyses_figures and analyses_table. These files include both codes and specific comments.

Codes for running the decomposition analysis are provided by Diederik Boertien.
